What should an escort do when a visitor has completed their job?

• A. Leave the visitor at the last checkpoint.
• B. Guide the visitor to another department.
• C. Accompany the visitor to the Protected Area exit.
• D. Allow the visitor to wander out unsupervised.

Answer: (C)

After a visitor finishes their work, the escort should accompany them to the Protected Area exit. This keeps the visitor under supervision as they leave, ensuring their credentials are properly accounted for and that access to the secured zones is formally terminated. It also helps prevent tailgating or wandering into restricted areas without oversight, and provides a clear, auditable departure from the site. Rallying them to another department or leaving them at an intermediate checkpoint could bypass exit controls and create security gaps, while letting them go unsupervised risks unmonitored departure. escorting to the exit closes the loop on access control and maintains safety and accountability.
