PROPER EMPLOYEE CONDUCT DURING AND AFTER A ROBBERY

SAMPLE

(Taken from former Appendix B of Reg. P-repealed May, 1991)

With respect to proper employee conduct during and after a robbery, employees are instructed:

  1. To avoid actions that might increase danger to themselves or others;
  2. To activate the robbery alarm system and the surveillance system during the robbery, if it appears that such activation can be accomplished safely;
  3. To observe the robber’s physical features, voice, accent, mannerisms, dress, the kind of weapon he has, and any other characteristics that would be useful for identification purposes;
  4. That if the robber leaves evidence (such as a note), try to put it aside and out of sight, if it appears that this can be done safely; retain the evidence, do not handle it unnecessarily, and give it to the police when they arrive; and refrain from touching articles or places the robber may have touched or evidence he may have left, in order that fingerprints of the robber may be obtained;
  5. To give the robber no more money than the amount he demands, and include “bait” money in the amount given;
  6. That if it can be done safely, observe the direction of the robber’s escape and the description and license plate number of the vehicle used, if any;
  7. To telephone the local police, if they have not arrived, and the nearest office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or inform a designated officer or other employee who has this responsibility, that a robbery has been committed;
  8. That if the robber leaves before the police arrive, assure that a designated officer or other employee waits outside the office, if it is safe to do so, to inform the police when they arrive that the robber has left;
  9. To attempt to determine the names and addresses of other persons who witnessed the robbery or escape, and request them to record their observations or to assist a designated officer or other employee in so doing; and
  10. To refrain from discussing details of the robbery with others before recording observations of the robber’s physical features, the direction of escape, description of vehicle used, if any, and other characteristics.
