  Safety Tips

Auto Theft / Theft from Auto
One vehicle is stolen every 20 seconds in the United States. Stolen cars, vans, trucks and motorcycles cost victims time and money - and increase everyone's insurance premiums. They are also often used to commit other crimes. Don't become a victim of this serious crime.

1 Never leave your keys in the car or ignition.
2 Always lock your car, even if it's in front of your home.
3 Copy your tag number and vehicle identification number (VIN) on a card and keep it with your drivers license.
4 Do not leave vehicle credentials such as drivers license, registration or insurance cards in your vehicle.
5 Use any anti theft devices.
6 Never leave cellular phones, computers or book bags in plain sight.
7 Never leave loose change visible.

Office Theft

1 Keep your purse, wallet, keys or other valuable items with you at all times or locked in a drawer or closet.
2 Check the identity of any strangers who are in your office, ask whom they are visiting and if you can help them find that person. If this makes you uncomfortable, inform security or police about your suspicions.
3 Always let someone know where you'll be, whether it's coming in late, working late, going to the photocopier or mail room, going out to lunch or a meeting.
4 If you bring personal items to work such as a radio, calculator or computer, mark them with your name or initials and an identification number such as your drivers license number.
5 Report any broken or flickering lights, dimly lit corridors, doors that don't lock properly or broken windows.  Don't wait for someone else to do it.
6 If you have access to a building that is closed do not prop any doors open and make sure that the doors close securely.
7 Be discreet. Don't advertise your social life or vacation plans and those of your co-workers to people visiting or calling your place of work.
