Functioning of the Crises Management System at the country and commune including the aspects of transport

Abstract

This article discusses the problems of the crisis management system, with particular emphasis on the county and commune levels, along with the aspect of transport as part of crisis response. The aim of the work is to present the essence of the system, its determinants interdependent on the dynamics of crisis events, which should be taken over by means of planned actions. The crisis management system is imperfect, its activity is ineffective due to faulty organizational solutions, incomplete staffing of jobs, incomplete legal regulations and insufficient financial, information, human and material resources. The work uses both quantitative and qualitative methods, such as: system analysis, cause-and-effect analysis, statistical method and synthesis. The results of the pilot studies were presented and old and new problems were presented. Moreover, practical solutions were proposed to improve the crisis management system. Nevertheless, not all problems are presented in this paper. The spectrum of the issue, its complexity and the changes announced by the Polish government indicate a further need to raise this issue on a scientific basis.
