New Video: The roles and responsibilities of CERT in an incident
CERT consists of trained in-house personnel to effectively manage initiating events e.g minor spillages, minor fires. CERT is a key element to handling onsite emergencies to businesses in terms of reducing business disruption and minimizing losses should any initiating event/incident occur that could potentially escalate to a disaster. This important element adds to allay worker's concern for safety at work and also increases investor confidence as well as public confidence which in turn benefits the company. This video serves as a general guide to introduce the CERT concept to help for initial setup of a team or to improve practices of existing ones, as it revolves around the general principle of CERT being the first on scene to deal with the incident, proper handover to SCDF, and lastly, the continual involvement of CERT upon SCDF arrival.
