Threat Assessments

The article discusses threat assessment in consecutive National Crisis Management Plans in Poland after 2010. The scope of the article is limited to the assessment of those threats that may have an impact at the state level and which are included in the National Crisis Management Plan. A general approach to threat assessment for the purposes of national crisis management plans has been taken. A reference to the accuracy of consecutive threat assessments in the context of the occurrence of real crises is included later in the article. In the final part of the article, the perspectives for threat assessment are discussed. Due attention is paid to threats which have an increased likelihood of occurring and the severest consequences.

The study examined crisis management in senior high schools in the Cape Coast metropolis. A basic interpretive study was conducted to gather data from heads of senior high schools in Cape Coast. The study revealed that the schools remain largely unprepared to handle crisis. Also, the study informants indicated that the schools do not have crisis management plans and do adopt reactive measures in addressing crisis. Policy recommendations included the development of crisis management plan as an integral part of the strategic plans of the schools. Research recommendations included replicating this study in other GES designated districts and metropolis to determine if findings reported here are typical for the entire country.

Crisis Management Plan

ABSTRACT While developing its new crisis management plan in 1989, BP America (BPA) modified the incident command system (ICS) for use as the organizational structure of its oil spill response team. This was done to be compatible with the post-Exxon Valdez organization of the Alyeska response team and for certain advantages it would provide for responses in other locations and in other types of crisis situations. The ICS was originally developed for fighting wildfires in California and has since been widely adopted by other fire and emergency services in the U. S. While retaining most of the ICS structure, ?PA developed modifications necessary to fit the unique requirements of oil spill response. The modified ICS was used during a full scale test of ?PA's draft crisis management plan in December 1989, and thus was familiar to ?PA's top executives and other participating response team members. When the American Trader spill occurred in February 1990, BPA's management used the modified ICS organization even though the crisis management plan had not been finalized or widely distributed within the company. Details of the organizational structure evolved as the spill response progressed, in part due to the changing requirements of the response over time and in part because of previously unrecognized issues. This paper describes that evolution and the resulting final structure. Essential differences between the original ICS and BPA's oil spill version of it are highlighted. Despite the unrecognized issues and the unfamiliarity of some team members with the ICS, the organization worked well and can be credited with a share of the success of the American Trader response.

The article considers theoretical and practical aspects of management of foreign economic activity of chemical industry enterprises of Ukraine through the prism of crisis management. Attention is focused on the fact that at the moment chemical production in Ukraine is in the shadow of import substitution, and exports in general are losing production and economic potential, perseverance. The chemical industry is closely linked to the agro-industrial complex, and this issue is especially relevant in light of the possible food crisis, the arrival of which is predicted at the UN after the pandemic. That is why the answers at the state level should be found in the appropriate chronology, which will help to find a moment of distortion of the balance between justified imports and lost export potential. The aim of the anti-crisis strategy is to create a huge potential for environmentally friendly products through the introduction of appropriate innovations (based on domestic resources, such as bioethanol from biomass and stubble, biomethanol from solid waste, algae-based projects (from the Black and Azov Seas). The benefits of the strategy will be as follows: 1) dual benefits by reducing dependence on imports and increasing capacity for chemical production projects; 2) stimulating the overall growth of the chemical industry through public-private partnerships; 3) elimination of the current stagnant conditions of the industry caused by the consequences of the pandemic. Proposals to pursue a policy of reasonable protectionism in relation to import substitution for all participants in the domestic market are formulated. At the state level, in order to support the whole sector, it is advisable to adopt a model that emphasizes the use of appropriate fuels / raw materials based on domestic resources to reduce dependence on imports; replace mass imports with exclusive imports of only environmentally friendly and updated foreign innovative chemical technologies; attracting investment from TNC through appropriate government policies. The task of the Government in this situation is to carefully study the situation in each case and make a balanced decision.
