Give them room. Keep other people back.
Clear hard or sharp objects, like glasses and furniture, away.
Cushion their head.
Loosen clothing around their neck, if you can safely.
Don't try to hold them down or stop their movements.
Inform the emergency medical team and follow the Emergency medical plan
Make sure the victim is in safe enviorment and try to put the victim in recovery position so that nothing will choke his throat and he can breath easly.
Sound the emergency / fire alarm. Mobilise First Aid team to site. Apply good and clear communication between all the Emergency response team. Relocate the victim to a safe location or transfer to the site clinic.

Tonic-clonic seizures are the type of seizure most people recognise. They used to be called grand mal seizures. Someone having a tonic-clonic seizure goes stiff, loses consciousness, falls to the floor and begins to jerk or convulse. They may go blue around the mouth due to irregular breathing. Sometimes they may lose control of their bladder or bowels, and bite their tongue or the inside of their mouth.
Here’s how to help if you see someone having a tonic-clonic seizure.
You may also hear this type of seizure called a partial seizure. Someone having a focal seizure may not be aware of their surroundings or what they are doing. They may have unusual movements and behaviour such as plucking at their clothes, smacking their lips, swallowing repeatedly or wandering around.
