The steps for summoning personnel during emergencies are described in which procedure?

• A. Recall Procedure
• B. Incident Action Plan
• C. After-Action Review
• D. PPE Donning Procedure

Answer: (A)

The recall procedure is the mechanism used to quickly mobilize responders in emergencies. It outlines how personnel are alerted, who is expected to respond, and how they report to a designated location or incident command post. The emphasis is on speed, reliability, and accountability so that enough staff are brought into action in a timely way. In contrast, the Incident Action Plan describes the overall strategy, objectives, and assignments for the incident, not the steps to summon personnel. The After-Action Review happens after the incident to assess performance and identify improvements. The PPE Donning Procedure focuses on the order and method for putting on personal protective equipment, not on calling people to respond. Therefore, the recall procedure best addresses the question of summoning personnel during emergencies.
