In the Incident Command System (ICS), the General Staff consists of four key positions: Operations, Planning, Logistics, and Finance/Administration. Each section is responsible for specific functions during an incident response. The General Staff works under the Incident Commander to manage resources, coordinate activities, and ensure effective communication and support throughout the incident. Together, they facilitate a structured approach to incident management, ensuring that objectives are met efficiently.
