The Security Office is the university’s key body responsible for regulations concerning labour and health protection. It is involved in:
1. Creating, developing and supporting security systems at HSE venues, protecting them from terrorism, theft and other criminal activities, acts of vandalism, natural disasters, and civic unrest;
2. Providing fire safety at HSE venues, organizing activities aimed at maintaining local warning systems, technical and other firefighting systems and facilities at HSE venues;
3. Organizing activities aimed at disaster prevention and relief;
4. Providing information security at HSE, including protection of commercial confidential information.
In all cases of threats to your own safety or that of other students at HSE venues or on nearby territories, please contact security staff at checkpoints in HSE buildings, or the building supervisor. In all cases of emergency, call 112.
