Abstract

This article deals with the issue of coping with psychological and physical consequences of emergency situations in members of the Integrated Rescue System (IRS). The up-to-date nature of this topic stems from the arduousness of the job, especially from the mental stress affecting the staff. Data was collected through an anonymous questionnaire survey that was distributed among members of the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic, the Police of the Czech Republic and employees of the Czech Republic's Medical Emergency Service (MES). The research has been conducted on the basis of completed anonymous questionnaires distributed among 539 respondents.
