The holiday shopping season is a peak time for crimes such as home burglaries, thefts, and even muggings. Following these valuable tips may prevent you from being the victim of a crime during the holidays.
At Work
· Lock any gifts you bought on your lunch hour in a safe place. Remind your co-workers to do the same.
Be especially careful to keep your car and house keys and wallet with you at all times. Never leave property unattended and always place purses, handbags, wallets and other valuables locked and secured in desks, cabinets or closets.
· Never leave your office unattended. Lock the door when you leave the area, even if it's for just a few minutes.
· Be alert for people who may try to take advantage of the holiday season's reduced staffing levels by attempting to burglarize unattended offices. If you see unauthorized people in places they should not be, immediately call the Building Management Office.
· Don't announce that you are leaving town during the holidays. If someone calls, don't release information about your co-workers.
