With summer in full swing and many of us taking vacations (or staycations), it is essential to keep safety in mind. Whether you are heading out of town or simply enjoying local summer events, it is important to secure your work environment before you go. Here are some tips to help you protect your workspace:

• Ensure that all sensitive documents and valuables are secured in locked drawers or cabinets. 

• Do not leave any personal or valuable items at your workstation unattended.  

• If possible, arrange for a trusted colleague to periodically check on the office premises. 

• When leaving your workstation, unplug any equipment that will not be used, and leave your workstation clean and tidy. 

By taking these precautions, you can safeguard your work and enjoy a worry-free vacation.
