Emergency Response Cooperation Officers are responsible for establishing emergency response plans and managing resources of their respective emergency rescue support agencies during normal times, and they oversee mutual cooperation in disaster response tasks and support at disaster sites when disasters occur. As of 2023, a total of 335 institutions have designated Emergency Response Cooperation Officers.
The Seoul Deputy Mayor for Administration 2 will attend this Emergency Response Cooperation Officers Meeting to deliver a message regarding the policy direction for integrated disaster site response at the Seoul city level. Through the meeting, there will be focused discussions on understanding the integrated disaster site response system and establishing an organic cooperation system among the Emergency Rescue Control Team, Disaster Safety Countermeasures Headquarters, and Integrated Support Headquarters at disaster sites.
Through this, the plan is to enhance the understanding of the disaster response system among response agencies such as Seoul city, autonomous districts, fire departments, police, public health centers, and hospitals, so that prompt and appropriate actions can be taken when support requests are made between agencies.
Meanwhile, about 150 Emergency Response Cooperation Officers from major emergency rescue support agencies and disaster management responsible personnel from Seoul city and autonomous districts will attend this meeting.
