Answer: Using specific position titles in ICS helps to describe the responsibilities of the position. TRUE
Step-by-step explanation:
Coordinating the effective use of all available resources is not easy. You need to formalize a management and operation structure that provides direction, effectiveness and efficiency to the response. The Incident Command System, practiced in everyday work, is the organizational tool to establish that structure.
All incidents, regardless of their magnitude and complexity, must have only one Commander of the Incident. This is the one who assumes the responsibility of the actions at the scene until the command is transferred to another person.
The structure would have:
- Commander of the incident. (Chief of planning, chief of operations, chief of logistics, chief of administration.)
- Security officer.
- Public information officer.
- Liaison Officer.
