This guidance is designed to help people respond safely to incidents involving hazardous substances, including ‘acid attacks’.
REMOVE

Security personnel and other staff may be the first responders to an incident where someone has been exposed to a hazardous substance. The REMOVE. REMOVE. REMOVE. advice is closely aligned to guidance for the emergency services and provides simple, consistent advice on early actions following:

 

  • suspected deliberate or accidental exposure to a hazardous substance (vapour, powder or liquid) 
  • an ‘acid attack’

 

The REMOVE. REMOVE. REMOVE. advice can be implemented without specialist protective equipment and is relevant for any potential hazardous substance incident.

The protocol is endorsed by Public Health England, as well as all three emergency services.
