Management of Complex Operations for Prevention and Management of Emergency Situations

Abstract

Taking into account the perspective in the field of management of the prevention and management of emergency situations of an institutional system, partly established, with temporary functioning, which is only active at the moment of occurrence of the Emergency Situations, unable to provide an adequate response to the new challenges to the national security, a national emergency management system was set up in Romania, composed of a number of authorities and bodies: the National Emergency Committee, the Ministerial Committees and other central public institutions for emergency situations, the Committee of the City Bucharest Emergency Situations, County Emergency Committees and Local Emergency Committees. In most Western and Central European countries, the field is managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs (administration and internal, justice and home), and the Council for Justice, Home Affairs and Civil Protection functions at EU level. The range of emergencies is widened by various natural disasters, storms, torrential rains and hail, blizzard, massive snow or avalanches, earthquakes, earthquakes, and earthquakes, which in turn cause human casualties and material damage. These are the reasons why public authorities, world states, the international community develop security policies and strategies, create and develop specialized institutions, strive to prevent or mitigate risks, protect the population and assets in emergencies. Regularly, congresses and world conferences on civil protection are held to harmonize legislation, standardize response procedures, and facilitate international assistance in civil emergencies.
