β‘ Electricity outage (after trying to reset the fuse)

Personal Safety Emergencies
In situations where your personal safety is at risk or you encounter an unauthorized individual in the building, follow these steps:
Immediate Actions When Feeling Unsafe
Contact Local Authorities: If you feel unsafe or are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services without delay. They are best equipped to handle urgent safety concerns.
Prioritize Your Safety: Remove yourself from the situation if possible and ensure you are in a secure location while waiting for assistance.
Addressing Unauthorized Individuals in the Building
If you see someone in the building who does not reside there and you feel uncomfortable or suspicious:
Notify Local Authorities: For situations requiring immediate intervention.
Avoid personal confrontation with the individual to minimize potential risks.
Why Contacting Local Authorities is Crucial
In situations involving personal safety or unauthorised individuals, local emergency services are trained and authorised to respond effectively. While building management can address long-term security policies and protocols, they cannot provide immediate safety interventions or handle emergency situations.
π Important: If you are in immediate danger or need emergency services like police, fire, or medical help, please refer to the emergency numbers for your city:Always contact local authorities first when dealing with personal safety concerns, such as feeling unsafe or encountering unauthorized individuals, before notifying LifeX.
