SECTION 1

In Bomb Threats we look at what to do if you receive a telephoned bomb threat. We explain what information should be collected and details that will be helpful to the police. In Suspicious Packages we talk about the signs that could mean a package contains an explosive device or other dangerous contents and explain what to do if you come across these packages at work.

Evacuation and searches are a vital part of keeping people safe during a bomb threat
SECTION 2

Here we look at evacuation – what you should do and where you should go. We also consider whether evacuation is the right course of action. Sometimes it’s safer to remain inside the building. We also look at searches, who should do them and how, and the part you may play in this.

Why is this training important?

Compliance

It's important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.

There is currently no legislation to help guide organisations, however, The Criminal Law Act of 1977 does have a small section dedicated to bombing hoaxes. 

The Criminal Law Act 1977

Section 51 of The Criminal Law Act 1977 focuses on bomb threats and bomb hoaxes, it states: 

(1) A person who—

(a) Places any article in any place whatever; or
(b) Dispatches any article by post, rail or any other means whatever of sending things from one place to another,with the intention (in either case) of inducing in some other person a belief that it is likely to explode or ignite and thereby cause personal injury or damage to property is guilty of an offence.
