Security guards

A card reader system is a type of electronic identification system that is used to identify a card and then perform an action associated with that card. Depending on the system, the card may identify where a person is or where he or she was at a certain time, or it may authorize another action, such as disengaging a lock. For example, a security guard may use his or her card at card readers located throughout a facility to indicate that he or she has checked a certain location at a certain time. The reader will store the information and/or send it to a central location, where it can be checked later to ensure that the guard has patrolled the area. Other card reader systems can be associated with a lock, so that the cardholder must have his or her card read and accepted by the reader before the lock disengages. [Pg.175]

The Gun-Free Schools Zones Act (part of the Crime Control Act of 1990) made it illegal for anyone (other than a police officer or security guard) to have a firearm in a school zone, or to carry unloaded firearms (unless in a locked container) within 1,000 feet of school grounds. The Supreme Court overmrned this law in 1995 in U.S. v. Lopez (see Representative Court Cases). [Pg.44]

Krafft, Bruce W. My Day at the Mall. Firearms and Liberty.com. Available online. URL http //www.firearmsandliberty.com (via link). Posted on July 25, 2003. Reports the author s confrontation with security guards after carrying a gun in a shopping mall in what he says was a violation of a new law that does not allow businesses to ban customers or guests from carrying guns. [Pg.214]

I want to thank my colleagues and investors for allowing me to spend my life playing around with this interesting stuff. In this new adventure, they have not only listened to predictions and projections, they have supported them with time, energy, and money. Without them, I would be a security guard with a gun. [Pg.6]

The estimated indirect costs are expected to be (annually) 45 million dollars for bombing investigations and bomb disposal, 15 million dollars for the cost of evacuations and delays due to bombing threats, 10 million dollars for security guards employed because of bombings, 5 million dollars for judicial proceedings against... [Pg.520]

Martens-Lobenhoffer et al. [119] used chiral HPLC-atmospheric pressure photoionization tandem mass-spectrometric method for the enantio-selective quantification of omeprazole and its main metabolites in human serum. The method features solid-phase separation, normal phase chiral HPLC separation, and atmospheric pressure photoionization tandem mass spectrometry. The internal standards serve stable isotope labeled omeprazole and 5-hydroxy omeprazole. The HPLC part consists of Agilent 1100 system comprising a binary pump, an autosampler, a thermo-stated column component, and a diode array UV-VIS detector. The enantioselective chromatographic separation took place on a ReproSil Chiral-CA 5 ym 25 cm x 2 mm column, protected by a security guard system, equipped with a 4 mm x 2-mm silica filter insert. The analytes were detected by a Thermo Scientific TSQ Discovery Max triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, equipped with an APPI ion source with a... [Pg.232]

It is prudent to avoid working in a laboratory alone. However, if this must be done, arrangements should be made between individuals working in separate laboratories outside of conventional hours to crosscheck periodically. Alternatively, security guards may be asked to check on a laboratory worker. A worker who is alone in a laboratory should not undertake experiments known to be hazardous. [Pg.512]

If the project and the company are the same, then these are all the costs to be considered. However, it is usual for the project to be situated among other plants belonging to the company on a larger site, and then there are general costs for the whole site (such as a fire station, the security guard system, a canteen) to be shared among all the plants. This overhead charge (direct if it is for the same site, plus indirect for the company s other activities) is usually derived on a capital investment proportional basis. [Pg.286]

Many schools employ security guards and have installed security equipment such as video cameras and metal detectors in the building. Police have brought in dogs to sniff out drugs, and lockers are sometimes searched randomly. The schools believe that these steps are necessary in order to maintain safety, but some students feel like they are attending a prison instead of... [Pg.139]

Effect 3 is not likely because it is too extreme the parking garage manager s statement does not surest that he plans to fire security guards. Rather, it suggests that he plans to look into the security problem. [Pg.142]

Never work in the laboratory alone. (For graduate research work and professional work, it is sometimes necessary to work alone. If so, make sure that someone—a security guard or an individual working in a nearby laboratory—will check on you every few hotus.)... [Pg.7]

A firewall is the equivalent of security guards at the entrance to the building. Corporate firewalls are barriers that exist between an enterprise s computer networks, or intranet, and any external network. Generally, firewalls filter inbound and outbound data, provide or manage public access to requested locations, deny all services except those explicitly permitted by the system administrator, log traffic and activity through the firewall, and activate alarms as prowlers are detected. ... [Pg.2557]

However, there have been cases where companies have hired unpredictable workers without a criminal record. In early 2004, in Texas, for example, a contract security guard at a BASF ammonia facility apparently shot himself, then blamed it on a foreign intruder, only to be arrested on other unrelated charges two weeks later. His story had been covered widely by the media, raising public concerns about plant safety. [Pg.73]

If the medical treatment facility (MTF) or hospital becomes contaminated with chemical agent, not only does it become useless to render care, but it also exposes the staff and all other patients to chemical contamination. All precautions must be used to avoid this issue. Only very limited access to the hospital or MTF should be permitted. At most, only one or two entrances to the hospital should be used by incoming patients and employees. At these entrances, proof of decontamination or noncontamination, in the form of checking the individual with a chemical agent monitor (CAM) for contamination, must be presented before admission. AU other entrances must be locked down. Security guards posted on the inside of aU entrances would prevent unauthorized entrance from outside. Remember, people exiting the hospital could hold the door open to admit contaminated individuals from the outside. [Pg.677]

During college I took a job as a Security Guard for Coca-Cola. After six months, I was working inside the Coca-Cola plant as a Lab Technician. [Pg.4]
