On spotting any suspicious object or an explosion occurred, before the arrival of police officers and rescue personnel, security/property management personnel could facilitate police officers and rescue personnel by performing the following actions:
- Provide information as far as possible about the explosion and the casualties (e.g.: Is there a fire? Has the building collapsed or been damaged? What are the numbers and conditions of casualties? )
- Keep Emergency Vehicular Access clear
- Do not obstruct fire service inlets, sprinkler inlets, fire hydrants and their ground valves
- Make available a comprehensive floor plan for the Police and rescue personnel
- Designate a contact person to communicate with the Police and rescue personnel
- Assist in the evacuation and head counting
