1. Be sure that your company has a clear set of procedures for dealing with office intruders. By acting quickly, you can keep a bad situation from becoming worse.
2. Early morning hours and early evening hours are the most commonly used times for entry by intruders. Be sure your space is secure when staffing is low.
3. Secure all purses, wallets, backpacks, etc. Do not leave your valuables unattended. Carry only what you need. Leave occasionally used credit cards, etc. in a secure place at home.
4. Doors should be locked if your area is unoccupied. If your office has more than one entrance, one door should be used by everyone to enter and exit. This should eliminate doors being propped open or intruders entering undetected.
5. Guests and clients should not be allowed past the reception area without notice to coworkers by phone or intercom.
6. All guests and clients should wait in the reception area for an escort.
7. If you encounter an unfamiliar and unescorted person in the office area, ask "May I Help You?" and accompany him/her to his/her destination. An intruder will give you a quick answer and try to walk away.
8. Do not try to restrain an intruder. Write down a description of the suspect, last known direction of travel and follow your office procedures. Notify Security immediately by calling 206.224.1203.
9. If a theft occurs, report it to the police immediately and then to Security.
10. Call 206.625.5011 for any incident which you believe should be reported to the Police Department, but does not require an officer to respond to the scene.
11. Call 911 for all medical, fire and police emergencies anytime you believe police, fire or medical personnel should be sent to the scene. Contact Property Management at 206.224.1201 so that we may hold an elevator for the emergency personnel.
