If you are unsure whether a door is a CAEP entry, what is the proper action?

• A. Proceed through quickly to not delay others
• B. Verify with security or supervisor before entering
• C. Use a coworker's unauthorized badge to enter
• D. Seek to circumvent with a guess

Answer: (B)

When a door is a CAEP entry, access is tightly controlled and you must have proper authorization before you pass through. If you’re unsure whether this door can be entered, pause and verify with security or a supervisor before you proceed. This ensures you’re cleared for entry and helps maintain the security of restricted areas. It also prevents unsafe or unauthorized actions like tailgating, using someone else’s badge, or guessing and rushing through. If you’re uncertain, ask for confirmation or an escort from security, rather than attempting entry or using a coworker’s badge.
