Civil Disturbance


Although riots and civil disturbances are rare, there is still a need for a planned course of action in the event a civil disturbance erupts.

Should a disturbance start outside the building, Building Management will:

  • Secure all building entrances.

  • Notify the police.

  • Notify the tenants.

  • Prevent access to all suites.

  • In the event that a civil disturbance initiates inside the building:

Make sure all occupants are in your office and lock your suite doors including the main entrance. Assign a responsible individual to stand by the entrance door with a key allowing authorized personnel only to enter and leave.

Immediately notify Building Management and provide the following information:

  • Exact location of the disturbance, demonstrators, and/or rioters.

  • Approximate number of demonstrators or rioters.

  • Your name, company name, and call-back number.
