OSH Security Practice Test

As a security guard which of the following would NOT be covered under the site’s Emergency Measures Plan?

1. Dealing with a bomb threat

2. Fire procedures

3. Earthquake evacuation procedures

4. Night time door closing procedures

The correct answer is: Night time door closing procedures

The selection of night time door closing procedures as something that would not be covered under the site’s Emergency Measures Plan is appropriate because these procedures typically fall under routine operational protocols rather than emergency responses. Emergency Measures Plans focus on procedures that are activated during serious incidents that pose an immediate threat to safety, such as bomb threats, fires, or natural disasters like earthquakes. In contrast, night time door closing procedures are generally part of standard operational practices, which ensure security and management of the premises during non-business hours, rather than being emergency measures meant to address life-threatening situations. This distinction highlights that emergency plans are specifically designed to prepare staff for unexpected and critical scenarios, ensuring a robust response to protect individuals and property in the face of emergencies.
