General Office Security

Park Tower Management takes many precautions to protect Tenant belongings. The following tips can help reduce thefts, especially if these tips are shared or posted in tenant offices.

• Lock all doors when the office in unattended or when practical control of entrance and exit areas is not possible. In the event of emergency evacuation, be sure to lock entry doors to Premises if time permits. However, if there is a fire on your floor, you should leave your door closed but unlocked so that access to the area of the fire can be facilitated.
• Hang coats, jackets away from the entrance to the office, where they can't be easily stolen while you are busy.
• Keep valuables out of sight and under lock and key. A minimum amount of cash should be kept in the office. Both petty cash and stamps should be locked in the office safe.
• Keep purses and gift packages out of sight, locked inside a cabinet or desk if possible. Purses should not be left on or under desks.
• Lock desks when not seated at them.
• Be wary of solicitors and peddlers. Challenge any unknown person in your suite or corridor. A simple "May I help you?" may prevent many potential problems. An old trick is to engage you in conversation while secretly making a survey of your office setup for later use. Solicitation is NOT permitted in the Building. If solicitors enter your suite, please inform them of this policy. Please call Building Management and report solicitors immediately.
• Do not let persons other than employees and clients into your restrooms; entry doors should be locked at all times.
• If any unauthorized person comes to your office to do work, check his identity with the Building Management Office.
• Keep fire exit stairwell doors closed at all times. In addition to closed stairwells being an integral part of our fire life safety system, they are also a vital part of the Building's security system.
• Do not let anyone else into the Building when you enter by using your Key Access Card. Should suspicious or undesirable persons be seen loitering in or around the Building, please report them to Building Security. A security guard will be dispatched to investigate the situation immediately.
