Bomb threat

A bomb threat is often unfounded and made by a disturbed individual, but it should always be taken seriously, and each threat should be notified to the police. In this situation, it is important to keep calm.

If you receive a bomb threat call, stay calm and do the following: listen carefully to the message from the person making the threat:

  • What
  • Where
  • When
  • How
  • Who

  • Take careful notes during the call.
  • Make a clear report of the call to 112.
  • Immediately make a clear report of the call to security staff who will assess the follow-up.
  • Take the necessary action in accordance with the instructions you have received.

In serious and urgent cases, the entire building will be evacuated immediately:

  • Move to the assembly point as instructed.
  • Take your phone, keys, backpack and essential personal belongings with you.
  • Take action at the assembly point in accordance with the instructions you have received.

DO NOT TOUCH ANY STRANGE OBJECTS, LEAVE THE INFORMATION TO THE POLICE AND MANAGEMENT.

A suspicious object or threatening letter

  • Do not touch the object.
  • If the item in question is a letter or other such object that you have handled, pay attention to the places you have touched and place the letter in a plastic pocket, for example.
  • Notify immediately the personnel responsible for safety and security on your premises and the property (cf. chapter on safety and security personnel) as well as the police at emergency number 112.
  • Isolate the area as well as possible. Keep in mind possible police investigations (fingerprints and footprints are first-class evidence).
  • Do not panic. Act according to the instructions from the police and the safety personnel.
