The following actions will protect your life, and help protect others’ lives and property.
SUSPICIOUS OBJECTS
- DO be watchful of your surroundings at all times, during regular office hours, after office hours, and on weekends.
- DO NOT hang around the area where the suspected bomb is located. Leave the place immediately.
- DO report immediately to your security any unattended items that you notice.
- DO call the following numbers to get emergency assistance: 118, 119, 24-33333 (Police Emergency), or 243-4253 / 2244-057 (bomb squad).
- DO NOT place yourself in exposed areas (near glass windows for example) and DO NOT peep out to see what is happening when you hear bombs: you might get directly in harm’s way and make yourself an easy target.
- DO move away immediately and crouch down if you hear any sound of gun-fire or any other similar sound or should you observe an unusual crack suddenly developing on the glass sheets.
- DO be as calm as possible. If someone else takes charge of the situation follow him/her without hesitation.
- DO help to vacate the building – when necessary - in an urgent and orderly manner.
- DO NOT make any unnecessary movements and decisions before ascertaining the situation around you properly (For example, if it is an attack on the building, floors above or below you could be affected.You must be mindful of this when exiting.)
- DO ensure that your attire does not hinder movement in an emergency (For example high heels may cause injury in an emergency evacuation). Abandon immediately any sharp / protruding objects you may be carrying in these situations.
SUSPICIOUS PERSONS
- DO observe the behavior of Customers, Vendors, Messengers, Delivery Boys, etc. as and when time permits and notify your security or manager immediately if anything unusual is observed. Exercise your right tactfully and without the notice of the person concerned so that you protect yourself, other staff members, and the property of the institution without jeopardizing the institution and its customer relations.
