Safety and security
Stockholm is a relatively safe city, but as in
all capital cities, you need to exercise common
sense at night. Do be aware of your surroundings and take sensible precautions after dark:
avoid badly lit streets, do not shortcut through
parks but instead walk around them, and
avoid walking alone. Never accept a lift in a
car from a stranger.
SAFETY AT HOME
CAUTION IN THE CITY
If you see anything suspicious during office hours, call
the school’s switchboard at +46 (0)8-736 90 00 to alert
the SSE reception/switchboard.
Stockholm has a reputation among tourists as a safe
city, so unfortunately gangs of well-organized pickpockets sometimes target the city, in particular during
the big winter and summer sales, during the Christmas
shopping period, at outdoor concerts, or any other time
when stores and streets might be particularly crowded.
Avoid carrying large amounts of cash; practically all
shops and taxis in Sweden take credit and debit cards.
14
Always lock your apartment door and all windows
when you go out, even for a short while.
Do not leave valuable items or personal documents
such as passports or ID cards visible through windows.
Also make sure you have proper insurance coverage for
your belongings.
SAFETY AT SSE
For any life-threatening emergency, call the national
emergency number 112.
After office hours, call our SSE’s Securitas guard at
+46 (0)70-555 55 98 if you see anything suspicious.
The main SSE building is open to the public and theft
has sometimes been a problem. Do not leave your bag,
laptop or cellphone unattended if you are sitting in the
Atrium, in the SSE Library, in a classrooms or in any of
our other public areas.
