Suomalaisen häiriötilanteiden hallinnan ja johtamisen nykytilan arviointi

Assessment of the current state of incident management and leadership in Finland The study examines the current state of Finnish incident management and leadership, focusing on the impact of different areas of incident management on the system as a whole. The research question addresses the development of the Finnish incident management and leadership model. The research framework incorporates societal security strategy principles, legislation, and the comprehensive security model. Data was gathered through interviews with 18 representatives from central government, municipalities and organisations. The findings reveal legislative shortcomings in the allocation of leadership responsibilities within the Finnish model. In a system that is heavily dependent on cooperation, legal and political complexities pose challenges to development. The study concludes that the incident management model requires improvement not only in fostering cooperation, but also in regard to jointly agreed-upon approaches to incident management.
