If an escort cannot be provided, special precautions must be taken to protect all parties:
The notice to occupants about the impending work should include information to
the occupant on how Contractor personnel should identify themselves at the door.
Contractor personnel should be directed to never enter a unit unless there is an
adult present or, at minimum, an older and responsible adolescent (18 years or
older) who clearly understands the intended work and agrees to the team entering.
Personnel should be directed not to ask children who answer the door whether a
parent is home, but rather whether a parent is free to come to the door. This is to
avoid encouraging children to tell strangers that no adult is home.
Agreement should be reached on what Contractor personnel can tell occupants
about the work or in response to questions, as opposed to referring occupants to
the Housing Office.
It is not practical for a single person to introduce multiple teams of risk assessor(s) to
each occupant because it is not possible to predict in advance how long each risk
assessment will take.
The contractor is responsible for the security of their equipment (especially XRF units),
their employees, and to relock doors upon exit.
If special security arrangements must be made for the work, this should be noted below.
This might include both personnel and vehicle passes, as well as any information or
passes to enter secure locations.
