Incident commanders are the primary point of contact and source of truth when emergency incidents occur. They are trained to see the bigger picture, gather and coordinate the necessary response personnel, direct tasks and initiate any and all communication responses.

Incident Commanders are able to conduct:

• Emergency response: In a typical scenario, the person in charge of a facility undertakes the management, coordination and response to emergency situations at the facility.
• Fire Response: On-scene incident commanders assist offer a rapid, coordinated response to fire crises in industries where there is a risk of fires because they have in-depth knowledge of fire chemistry as well as the location and availability of response equipment.

When events occur, competent management is crucial to stabilise the situation. Communication and collaboration go awry in the absence of an incident commander. Without incident commander training, the workers in charge will not have a clear understanding of the management required during emergency situations. Additionally, they will no be trained to size up and develop an effective plan of action.

Emergency Response & Rescue

There is always the potential for emergencies across many industries, thus a critical need for properly trained incident commanders. This training is intended for highly experienced managers who are members of their company’s Fire Response Team (FRT).

 As an advanced course, training is limited to the following:

• Undertaking critical decision making under pressure
• Dealing with stressed personnel
• Developing effective response plans focussed on prevention of escalation and the preservation of human life
• Coordinating responses both on and off the facility
• Liaising with support agencies (internal and external) to maintain the response

Professional and industry-leading incident commander training is provided by Host Safety and Training. Workplace health and safety is guaranteed by providing staff with the necessary training.
