South Carolina Security Guard Practice Exam

As a security guard which of the following would NOT be covered under the sites 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 Emergency Measures Plan for a site refers to the pre-planned approach dealing with potential large-scale emergencies that can pose serious risks to the safety of people, property, and the normal operation of a business. These include, but are not limited to, situations such as bomb threats, fires, or natural disasters like earthquakes. Night time door closing procedures, though they could be part of a security guard's duties, are routine tasks rather than measures to be taken during emergencies. They don't fit into the emergency response plan simply because they are not related to any immediate danger or threat to the safety of site or individuals present on-site. Therefore, out of the given options, night time door closing procedures would not be covered under the site's Emergency Measures Plan. Other options such as dealing with a bomb threat, fire procedures, and earthquake evacuation procedures are typical examples of what would be included in such a plan.
