INTEGRATED SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY MANAGEMENT

    The Laboratory is implementing an Integrated Safeguards and Security
Management (ISSM) program. The objective of this program is to systematically
integrate safeguards and security into management and work practices at all
levels so that the Laboratory’s missions are accomplished safely and securely.
In addition the position of ISSM Point of Contact was established so that each
Laboratory organization has an individual who is aware of the safeguards and
security requirements.
    Employees are not expected to become experts on safeguards and security
requirements. However, they can help make BNL a safe and secure place to
work by doing the following:

• Contact your ISSM Point of Contact if you have questions about safeguards
and security requirements.
• Wear your badge at all times, register you vehicle with the Safeguards and
Security Division (SSD), and display your vehicle registration sticker.
• Complete the online visitor notification form when you are expecting a visitor
and contact the Foreign Visits and Assignments administrator at least 30
days before the arrival of a foreign visitor.
• Comply with the Laboratory’s cyber security, classified information, and
export control procedures.
• Use the security checklist when doing any work planning with the work
permit.
• Lock offices and buildings when they are not occupied, ensure that
equipment and material is adequately protected, and report any unusual
circumstances to the BNL Police Group at X-2238.
