What should a worker do if they encounter hostility regarding chemical testing?

When encountering hostility regarding chemical testing, requesting Security's presence is the most appropriate action. This response ensures that the situation is handled by authority figures trained to manage conflicts and maintain safety. Security personnel are equipped to de-escalate potentially volatile scenarios and can provide the necessary support to the worker. Their involvement not only helps in addressing the hostility but also protects the worker by establishing a formal response protocol.

Choosing to ignore the situation could lead to escalation and increase risk, while confronting the individual directly may provoke further aggression. Leaving the area immediately might remove the worker from the hostile environment, but it does not address the underlying issue or provide a long-term resolution. Requesting Security strikes a balance by ensuring that a trained professional can manage both the hostility and the integrity of the chemical testing process.
