What should you do when receiving a bomb threat?

  1. Remove suspicious looking packages from the area

  2. Notify people working in the building there could be a bomb

  3. Immediately call 911

  4. Contact property management, report the matter and follow their instructions

The correct answer is: Contact property management, report the matter and follow their instructions

The appropriate response when receiving a bomb threat is to contact property management, report the matter and follow their instructions. This is because property management will have established protocols and emergency plans in place for such incidents. They will be able to dictate the proper course of action, whether that is notification of law enforcement or an evacuation procedure. Security personnel are obliged to adhere to the guidance from their superiors in such circumstances. Immediate reaction without proper understanding of the situation could lead to undue panic or worse. Thus, it is crucial to maintain communication with those in control and carry out the specified actions.
