The purpose of a defined ‘use of force continuum’ is to clarify for those restraining, those restrained and the public in general, the means by which control may be properly and appropriately achieved. Most police or law enforcement agencies will have a published policy which will vary in nature. Such policies will define appropriate actions in response to actual or perceived threat (e.g. verbal or physical violence) and other factors (e.g. safety of others, presence of weapons). Hand in hand with this recognition of the need for appropriate response is the development of less-lethal weapons that can incapacitate or control with less likelihood of a fatal outcome, such as baton rounds and conducted electrical weapons. ■ Conflict resolution Any law enforcement officer involved in restraint control or public order setting should have an understanding of conflict resolution and the factors that will affect how individuals respond to certain threats or actions.
