The safety of our residents and employees are our number one concern. A recent survey by the E-magazine Workspace placed Renraku’s Seattle Arcology in the top 2% of all global workspaces in personal safety, making the Seattle SCIRE the largest building ever the Workplace exceptional safety seal. A major factor in the award was the careful design of our factories, offices and residential areas, all of which are built to avoid accidents and decrease the severity of those few that do happen. It also helps that a major hospital is never more than a quick elevator ride away.

Of course, not all safety problems result from accidents. It’s a sad but unmistakable fact of modern life that crime is more prevalent than ever before. In the streets of Seattle, despite the best efforts of police, robbery, burglary, assault and even murder are all to common. Even in the finest neighborhoods, it’s impossible to keep out all potentially dangerous individuals.

Here in the arcology, however, those urban troubles are literally a world away. Every entrance to the building is carefully guarded by graduates of Renraku’s renowned Seoul Security Academy, who keep a vigilant eye on all visitors in order to safeguard our residents. Non-pedestrian entrances, such as the monorail and the bus stations and the parking garage, are similarly guarded, and numerous Safezoneä booths provide impregnable places of refuge in the unlikely event that an incident does take place. Simply step inside one of these booths and press the PANICBUTTONä to seal yourself off from any troublemakers while simultaneously alerting building security.

Renraku surveillance cameras and security personnel constantly monitor all public and common areas, insuring continuous protection in every hallway, plaza, store and park.

Access above the sixth floor is carefully controlled by live guards and automated systems, including Renraku’s exclusive HearSayä voice recognition identification system. In addition to the security on the residential and business floors, the elevators also serve as part of the arcology’s protective systems. Evertone traveling above the sixth floor must be identified as an arcology employee or resident, or an authorized pre-registered guest of one, before the elevator will leave the public areas.

We’ve even taken steps to protect against the unlikely possibility of terrorist activities. The building’s exterior glass is armored and mirrored on all floors, and surveillance outside is as complete as it is inside. In case of emergency, elite members of the famed Red Samurai brigade are station at the arcology to ensure a prompt, safe response to trouble of any kind.
