Introduction to Incident Management

Incident management is defined as those processes, decisions and actions taken to resolve an emergency incident, and support recovery that will enable the community to return to a ‘new normal’. It is important to understand incident management principles if you hold a position in Tasmania with emergency management responsibilities as this is the process that underpins how an emergency event is managed.

The development of the videos for the modules was jointly funded by the Tasmanian and Australian Governments under the Natural Disaster and Recovery Arrangements with support from SES, Local Government Association of Tasmania-LGAT, Bureau of Meteorology and ABC News.
