Description

From incident commander to ground support personnel, NFPA 1026 defines Incident Management Team member qualifications.

With concerns for large-scale emergency incidents or events, operations considerations need greater management oversight. NFPA 1026: Standard for Incident Management Personnel Professional Qualifications identifies the minimum Job Performance Requirements (JPRs) for personnel performing roles within an all-hazard Incident Management System (IMS).

The Job Performance Requirements (JPRs) are consistent with, complementary to, and supportive of, the National Incident Management System (NIMS) ICS Core Competencies for:

• Incident Commander
• Safety Officer
• Public Information Officer
• Liaison Officer
• Operations Section Chief
• Staging Area Manager
• Operations Branch Director
• And many other roles

Throughout the incident command system — from initial local response to multi-jurisdiction situations — every member of an Incident Management Team (IMT) should be qualified through this NFPA® Standard.
