This drug influence security toolbox talk template provides security managers, supervisors and frontline officers with clear, actionable guidance for safely managing individuals who appear to be under the influence of illicit drugs or novel psychoactive substances (NPS). The template addresses primary hazards such as impaired judgement, heightened aggression, loss of coordination and potential chemical exposure, and supplies detailed DO and DON’T actions, PPE specifications, incident reporting procedures and step‑by‑step de‑escalation techniques. It is ideal for private security companies, corporate security departments, event security teams, venue staff and law‑enforcement liaison officers who require a robust safety briefing. Each section is fully editable, enabling you to insert site‑specific risks, local policies and company branding. The content aligns with UK legislation including the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 and the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992. By using this toolbox talk you can demonstrate compliance, reduce the risk of violent incidents, protect personnel from injury and support a safer working environment. It also outlines how to conduct safe searches, handle confiscated substances and coordinate with emergency services, ensuring a comprehensive response to drug‑related incidents. It references best practice standards such as BS EN 388 for impact gloves and BS EN 166 for eye protection, helping you to select appropriate personal protective equipment. Further guidance can be found at HSE drug and alcohol misuse guidance and the legislation text at Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 section 5.
