The Inter-departmental Counter Terrorism Unit (ICTU) kicked off the community safety education campaign, namely \u201cSafe Community Pledge\u201d in June 2022, with the first phase targeting at the chemical industry sector. The campaign aims to enhance the security awareness of the staff and the linkage with the chemical industry, so that we can mutually build a \u201cSafe Community\u201d.<\/p>\n
To reduce the security threat posed by high-risk chemicals, ICTU has invited a range of stakeholders of the chemical industry to participate in the campaign, including the retailers and suppliers of chemicals, logistics companies, as well as laboratories of universities, secondary schools and private practitioners, etc.<\/p>\n
To promote the campaign, ICTU will organise security awareness seminars for the participating units and distribute an information package containing useful leaflets and booklets to the staff. The campaign will be run in the form of pledge on three aspects: \u2013 (1) Stay Alert and Law-abiding, meaning to familiarise and properly comply with legal requirements; (2) Safe Management, meaning to maintain an updated inventory and to secure the chemicals properly; and (3) Spot and Report, meaning to timely report suspicious circumstances to Police.<\/p>\n
