Safety & Security Hint

Whenever you enter a shopping mall, a store, a restaurant, or even a place of worship, always look for 2 exits. We used to call them 'Fire Exits'. In today's world, we call them 'Emergency Exits'. Violence or shootings can and do occur and you need a way to escape. Always be aware of 2 ways to get out of any room or situation.

​

Be sure to share with your spouse and children on ways to ensure their safety. Many times, our kids spend countless hours at the mall. Often, we hear stories about situations where witnesses claim they thought they heard firecrackers, when actually it was gunshots. Don’t hesitate to exit the building through the quickest route.

​

Sit your family down for a talk and explain to them what can happen. You don't want to scare them but educate them for their safety.

​

Did you ever have a talk with your teenage drivers about how they should act if they are ever stopped by the police? I suggest you have an honest discussion about what they should do and what they should not do! For example, they should always respond to questions, “Yes Sir/Ma’am or No Sir/Ma’am”. They should never make any sudden moves or gestures that could put themselves in danger.

Make sure you share this info with your staff, as well.
