Comparison of knowledge of the lay and professional public about the activities of the Fire and Rescue Service of the Czech Republic within the integrated rescue system.
VESELÁ, Kateřina
The Fire Brigade of the Czech Republic represents one of the key components of the integrated rescue system. In the Czech Republic, the Fire and Rescue Service is it's main coordinator. It's task is to ensure the coordinated action of the components of the integrated rescue system, both in preparation for emergencies and in the implementation of rescue and liquidation work. Together with other units, it ensures a continuous emergency response, whose task is to receive reports of emergencies, evaluate them and, if necessary, take urgent action when they occur. The aim of this thesis is to quantify the knowledge of the general public about the activities of the Fire Brigade of the Czech Republic within the framework of the integrated rescue system, to quantify the knowledge of the professional public about the activities of the Fire Brigade of the Czech Republic within the integrated rescue system and to make a comparison of both quantifications and to draw recommendations. The research was carried out by means of a quantitative research survey. A non- standardized questionnaire was chosen for the data collection technique. The non- standardized questionnaire was addressed to the general and professional public. The data collection was carried out among the general public in the author's immediate vicinity and among the professional public in the fire stations of the Znojmo Territorial Department, consisting of the Znojmo Fire Station, the Moravský Krumlov Fire Station and the Hrušovany nad Jevišovkou Fire Station. The data sets obtained were investigated using one-dimensional and two-dimensional statistics (non-parametric testing, two- choice parametric testing). The results of the investigation confirmed the hypotheses of research (the knowledge of the lay public has the character of a normal distribution, the knowledge of the experts is very close to the division of Poisson's, there is a statistically significant difference between the knowledge of the lay public and the experts at the level of 0,05). The information obtained identifies shortcomings of the general public in their knowledge of the scope of activities of the Fire Brigade of the Czech Republic within the integrated rescue system. This information can then be used to create information material that will focus on the lack of knowledge of the general public or for further follow-up work and deeper investigation of individual responses.
