Mga madalas itanong
Should I hang up on a bomb threat caller?
No. Keep the caller on the line as long as you can and get as much information as possible. Signal a coworker to call 911 while you listen.
Who decides whether to evacuate after a bomb threat?
Your site's bomb threat plan names who makes that decision, usually building management working with police. If a suspected bomb is found on site, the area is evacuated right away.
What should I do with a threatening email?
Do not reply or delete it. Leave it open, take a screenshot with the subject, date and time, and call 911 and building management.
Can I use my radio during a bomb threat?
Avoid using radios or cell phones near a suspicious item. Move well away before you call or transmit.
