What are the three Command Staff positions?

The three Command Staff positions within the Incident Command System (ICS) are the Public Information Officer, Safety Officer, and Liaison Officer. The Public Information Officer serves as the communication link between the incident response and the public, ensuring that accurate information is disseminated through proper channels. The Safety Officer is responsible for monitoring safety conditions and developing measures to ensure the safety of personnel involved in the incident. The Liaison Officer acts as the primary point of contact for supporting agencies and assists with coordination and information sharing.

The other options include roles that are either not part of the Command Staff or mix positions incorrectly. For instance, the Peace Officer is not a standard designation within the Command Staff framework and typically refers to someone with law enforcement authority rather than a specific command role. Similarly, the Engine Company Officer is a tactical position rather than a command position. The Safety Specialist, while important for safety protocols, is not designated as part of the Command Staff in the established ICS structure.
