In case of acute danger and threat

In case of emergency, call SOS Alarm: 112.

For other matters, if something feels insecure, threatening or that deviates from normal: security guards:

Campus Solna: 08-524 864 29
Campus Flemingsberg: 08-524 860 60.

Guardians and security guards are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on both KI campuses, trained to deal with threats and violence. They also have the ability to alert the police very quickly.

In the event of an acute serious incident or ongoing deadly violence, it is fundamental to first put yourself in safety.

In case of immediate danger 

  • Flee the threat
  • Put yourself in safety
  • Warn others and call 112.

Abnormalities and threatening situations

  • Be alert and if you see anomalies such as left bags, masked people or people behaving in a threatening manner - alert neighbourhood watch and, in case of emergency, 112.
  • If an unauthorised person becomes threatening, try to remain calm and keep your distance. If possible, call for attention via colleagues or passers-by.

Threatening and violent behaviour at workplace

Threatening and violent behaviour is a serious working environment problem for our staff and students. KI will not tolerate any such behaviour in the workplace.

If you or a colleague is affected, contact your immediate supervisor or Head of Safety and Security Unit. More information: Occupational Safety and Health.

Support in case of crisis

As staff at KI, you have the possibility to get support in case of a crisis. Contact your immediate manager or the HR manager of your department. As a student, you can contact your course coordinator or the Student Wellbeing Centre.

In the event of major crisis situations such as serious accidents, serious threats, natural disasters and fires, KI's crisis organization is activated.
