GET OUT Action (from The 3-OUT Approach to Workplace Safety)

LOCK OUT Action (from The 3-OUT Approach to Workplace Safety)
Most intruders have a relatively short amount of time to inflict as much damage as they can before they’re stopped by authorities, before they end things themselves or before they are stopped – by you!

As a result, they don’t want to spend time trying to enter a locked or barricaded space, costing precious seconds in their pursuit to kill as many as they can.
TAKE OUT Action (from The 3-OUT Approach to Workplace Safety)
