Earthquakes IMMEDIATE ACTION All Building Occupants (Property Staff, Tenants and Visitors)

Note: Many injuries during an earthquake are experienced during lateral movement by individuals during the tremors. Any movement to a safe area should be completed as quickly as possible     Move away from exterior windows and seek shelter in the core of the building (elevator lobby, interior stairwell), sit with your back against an inside wall, lean forward, and cover your head and neck with your hands OR get underneath a desk, table, or other sturdy object and hold on DO NOT use elevators DO NOT use your telephone, except for a medical or fire emergency because you could tie up the lines needed for emergency response IF YOU DECIDE TO EVACUATE, move away from the building into an open area. Do not stand under a bridge, overhead structure or power lines
