Question: 2 / 50

As a security guard you have been tasked to watch over an industrial accident scene awaiting the government investigator when a member of the media approaches you for a comment. What is the best way to handle this?

Say, “no comment” then tell them they are trespassing

Ignore them

Provide them with the contact person who is authorized to provide information

Providing the media member with the contact information of the person authorized to share information is the best way to handle this situation because it allows you to adhere to your responsibilities as a security guard to protect the scene while also helping the media member get the information they need from the appropriate source. Option A to say "no comment" and then accuse them of trespassing may escalate the situation and create a negative interaction. Ignoring them (option B) is not a professional or helpful solution. Similarly, serving them with a trespass notice and removing them (option D) is not necessary if they are simply seeking information and not causing any harm. Therefore, option C is the best way to handle this situation.

Serve them with trespass notice and remove them off the property
