ACTIVITY DESIGN

Title: 4-DAY BASIC INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM (ICS)

RATIONALE:

It is a known fact that the Philippines is exposed to natural disasters and

calamities due to its geographical location. In addition, man-made disasters, crimes
and acts of terrorism put the lives of the Filipinos at stake. All of these emergency
situations, whether natural or man-made, are generally referred to as incidents. An
incident is defined as an occurrence, caused by either human or natural phenomena,
that requires response actions to prevent or minimize loss of life, or damage to
property and environment.

In the past outbreak of incidents in the country, several gaps were identified
in the emergency management system. Examples are the presence of too many
unaccounted responders, the differences in emergency response organizational
structures, the inadequacy and incompatibility of communications, and the lack of
clarify on who’s in charge, poor crowd management and political interventions.

The lessons from the past incidents serve as a wake up call for the
Philippines to institutionalize the Incident Command System (ICS). As was
introduced by the US Forest Service, ICS is a standard, on-scene, and all hazard
incident management concepts that can be used by all DRRM Councils, emergency
management and response agencies. It is a disaster response tool that coordinates
the actions of all response groups. Thus, Mandaue City Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Office will conduct a four-day training on Incident Command System
(ICS) on December 3-6, 2018 first batch and December 10-13, 2018 for the second
batch.

OBJECTIVES:

Upon completion of this course, the participants will be able to:

1. Appreciate ICS as a vital tool for effective disaster response and

incident/event management;
2. Explain the overview of ICS-background, concepts, principles and features,
organizational roles, facilities and common responsibilities.
