Span of Control
In the Incident Command System (ICS), a group supervisor reports to the operations section chief. The group supervisor is responsible for managing a specific functional area or task within the overall incident response. They ensure that assigned resources are effectively utilized and that objectives are met as outlined in the incident action plan.
The ICS span of control is the number of individuals or resources that one supervisor can manage effectively during special events. It is prioritizing the safety and accountability of employees.
* Assigned: Assigned resources are working on an assignment under the direction of a Supervisor. * Available:Available resources are assembled, have been issued their equipment, and are ready for immediate assignment. * Out-Of-Service: Out-of-service resources are not ready for available or assigned status.

This location typically houses the necessary resources and personnel to address any conflicts, staffing concerns, or employee-related inquiries. If HR is not available, I would seek assistance from a supervisor or the incident commander for guidance on resolving the issue.
Locate your incident supervisor and obtain your initial briefing.
ICS recognizes that an Incident Commander may not be necessary if an Operations Section Chief is assigned
