GENERAL SAFETY AND SECURITY INFORMATION - Earth Sciences building: Please be vigilant. The following simple precautions should always be taken.
- Make sure the building entrance door is closed, especially when working after hours or during the weekend.
- Never block building entrance doors open unless the door is actually guarded, especially after normal business hours. If you see a door in this condition, close and lock it, or call security on x2333.
- Never leave laboratory or office doors open unless you are actually in the room.
- Always lock the door when you leave, even if it is just for a minute or two
- Never leave bags, purses, wallets, cell phones, keys, etc. within sight. Always put these things away and preferably locked away when not actually in use.
- Never leave money or valuables in rooms overnight. Note that if you use laptops or equipment borrowed from the department or staff members, it becomes your financial responsibility to replace the item if it is lost/stolen.
- If you see anyone you do not recognise in the building, you are perfectly entitled to ask who they are and what they are doing. If you are not satisfied with their answer call campus security on x2333.
- If you witness a crime or suspicious activity on campus, call campus security on x2333.
Security is as much your business as your personal safety is.
