Industrial Incident Management is a three-tape DVD/video series designed to provide training to personnel who may be called upon to set up an Incident Management System.

When an industrial emergency occurs, whether a small incident or a major crisis, federal regulations require that an Incident Management System (IMS) be in place, ready for implementation at the first alert. IMS - an organized system of roles, responsibilities and procedures for commanding and controlling emergency operations - provides for a systematic, complete and efficient response to any size emergency, able to expand or contract organizationally based upon the needs and complexity of the particular incident. IMS should be used at all incidents, drills and exercises in order to build familiarity with the system and to provide a solid foundation for its application at large-scale, non-routine situations.

This three-tape series teaches the industrial sector how to set up a workable IMS. The series includes three titles - Taking Control, which discusses setting up the system, Incident Command in the Field, which covers organizing the Command Post and designing strategy to deal with the incident, and The Emergency Operations Center, which discusses managing the crisis and dealing with the media.

Included in the Series:

• Taking Control
• Incident Command in the Field
• Emergency Operations Center
