1.1 本惯例规定了应急服务志愿者和单位保险福利的适用方式和范围，如志愿者或单位提供服务所在州的工伤赔偿法规所规定。 1.2 该实践确定了应急服务志愿者的基本类型，以及应纳入工伤保险的活动类型。 1.3 这种做法既包括作为合法负责提供搜索救援和其他应急服务的公共机构的有组织资源运作的应急服务单位，也包括响应公众对其服务的一般要求的志愿者。 1.4 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.5 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 3.1 就本惯例而言，假设在给定管辖区内负责紧急服务的法律机构（机构）也有法律责任为正规受薪员工提供工伤赔偿保险。 3.2 应急服务志愿者可能会被不定期地要求代表机构提供特殊技能或援助。因此，这些志愿者是其中的一部分- 并有权在特别要求时，或根据批准的计划或时间表，或在全职员工的监督下提供这些服务。 3.3 法定机构为紧急服务志愿者（ESV）承担工人赔偿保险责任，而紧急服务志愿者（ESV）正在积极向第节中定义的机构提供服务 5. 这种做法。该活动期应视为该机构《国家工人赔偿法》规定的就业期。 3.4 当法定机构（机构）要求本惯例规定的应急服务志愿者提供服务时，该机构应在提供本惯例所述服务的同时，对这些应急服务志愿者的受伤、医疗、工资损失和死亡承担责任。 3.5 在提供本惯例所述服务时，这些应急服务志愿者的受伤、医疗、工资损失和死亡的责任应符合要求提供应急服务志愿者服务的机构所在州的工人赔偿法的法定限制，并应根据该机构的国家工人赔偿法律法规进行管理。 3.6 应急服务单位成员的工人赔偿责任应与 3.1 ，并应由通常指导ESU活动的机构提供。 3.7 应急服务辅助单位成员的工人赔偿责任应与中概述的相同 3.1 除非其他法规或协议另有规定，否则应由请求非盟服务和指导非盟活动的机构提供。 3.8 为了向机构提供能够安全有效工作的受过培训的人员，通常要求应急服务志愿者与应急服务单位一起参与培训活动。 3.8.1 培训计划被认为是建立培训期间工人赔偿保险范围基础的关键。该计划既是向负责的法律机构发出的事先通知，也是为支持提供的服务水平而进行的培训的文件。 培训计划被视为一个动态文件，反映了由于天气、部队参与、新确定的技能和重新安排的优先事项而产生的必要变化。随着培训计划的更改，修订后的计划将提交给机构。 3.8.2 培训计划可能由根据其服务合同提供保险和福利的机构、市政当局或政府实体要求，或仅为方便定义活动周期。 3.8.3 培训计划应制定目标并列出可衡量的目标。这些目标为培训和提供的事件响应服务之间的关系提供了基础。该计划应列出该单位的所有计划活动以及预期参与人员。这将描述需要和预期的保险范围。该计划应详细说明预期对法律机构的活动和资源进行何种监督。该计划应建立一种对负责该单位培训活动的法律机构负责的方式，例如通过检查- 中央调度，并列入正式活动名册。 3.8.4 培训计划将包含以下要素，以符合纳入工人赔偿范围的条件: 3.8.4.1 应急服务单位的标识。 3.8.4.2 定义计划涵盖的时间段，通常为一年。 3.8.4.3 建立ESU与法律权威的关系。 3.8.4.4 制定总体规划目标。 3.8.4.5 培训计划大纲（即现场和教室、设备维护、机构管辖范围外的培训等）。 3.8.4.6 培训计划的具体大纲（如攀爬、夜间野外导航、搜索和消防技术、医疗应用等）。 3.8.4.7 建立客观满意度标准。 3.8.5 该培训计划和活动必须涉及技术、技能和安全，并且必须设计为使个人和单位达到公认的国家标准或请求机构可接受的其他标准。 3.8.6 众所周知，由于ESV需要掌握的技能的性质，危险活动的培训本身往往是危险的。 3.8.7 由于该机构是该培训的受益人，因此据说该机构雇用ESV是为了获得工人补偿福利，同时作为应急服务单位的成员进行培训。涵盖的培训活动是指ESU与机构之间的谅解备忘录或其他协议中定义为官方活动的活动，机构在其中提供工人补偿福利。 3.9 机构可能会要求紧急服务志愿者或单位提供公共教育服务。 这些服务可能包括公开露面、预防性搜索和救援（PSAR）计划、地面搜索操作的空中搜索熟悉、急救和心肺复苏教育、消防教育等。 3.9.1 当从事该机构授权的此类活动时，ESV或ESU被视为由该机构出于工人赔偿保险的目的雇用。

1.1 This practice defines the application of insurance benefits for emergency services volunteers and units in the manner and extent as provided for under the workers’ compensation statutes of the state in which the volunteer or unit provides services. 1.2 This practice identifies the basic types of emergency service volunteer, and the types of activities that should be covered by workers’ compensation insurance. 1.3 This practice includes both emergency service units who operate as organized resources to a public authority legally responsible for the provision of search and rescue and other emergency services, as well as those volunteers who respond to a general request to the public for their services. 1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 3.1 It is presumed for the purposes of this practice that the legal authority (agency) having responsibility for emergency services in a given jurisdiction also has a legal responsibility to provide workers’ compensation Insurance coverage for regular paid employees. 3.2 Emergency services volunteers are presumed to be requested irregularly to provide special skills or assistance on behalf of the agency. As such, these volunteers act as part-time employees of the agency and are empowered to act to provide these services when specifically requested to do so, or pursuant to an approved plan or schedule, or under the supervision of a full-time employee. 3.3 The legal authority incurs workers’ compensation insurance responsibility for emergency services volunteers (ESVs) while the ESV is actively providing services to the agency as defined in Section 5 of this practice. This period of activity shall be considered to be employment as defined by the state workers’ compensation statutes of the agency. 3.4 When a legal authority (agency) requests the services of emergency services volunteers as defined by this practice to provide services, the agency shall assume responsibility for the injuries, medical treatment, loss of wages, and death of those emergency services volunteers while providing services as described in this practice. 3.5 Responsibility for the injuries, medical treatment, loss of wages, and death of those emergency services volunteers while providing services as described in this practice shall be at the statutory limits of the workers’ compensation laws of the state of the agency requesting the services of the emergency services volunteer, and shall be administered in accordance with that agency's state workers’ compensation laws and regulations. 3.6 Responsibility for workers’ compensation for members of emergency services units shall be the same as outlined in 3.1 , and shall be provided by the agency normally directing the activities of the ESU. 3.7 Responsibility for workers’ compensation for members of emergency services auxiliary units shall be the same as outlined in 3.1 , and, unless provided for by other statute or agreement, shall be provided by the agency requesting the services and directing the activities of the AU. 3.8 To provide an agency with trained personnel who are able to work in a safe and effective manner, it is generally required that the emergency service volunteer engage in training activity with the emergency service unit. 3.8.1 A training plan is considered essential in establishing the basis for workers’ compensation insurance coverage during training. The plan serves as both prior notice to the responsible legal authority and documentation of training done to support the level of service provided. The training plan is considered to be a dynamic document, reflecting necessary changes due to weather, unit participation, newly identified skills, and rearranged priorities. As changes are made to the training plan, the revised plan is to be submitted to the agency. 3.8.2 The training plan may be required by the agency, municipality, or government entity providing coverage and benefits in accordance with its contract for services or merely as a convenience to define activity periods. 3.8.3 The training plan should establish goals and list measurable objectives. These goals provide a basis for a relationship between training and the incident response services provided. The plan should list all planned activity of the unit and who is expected to participate. This will delineate where insurance coverage is needed and expected. The plan should detail what supervision of activities and resources of the legal authority is expected. The plan should establish a means of accountability to the responsible legal authority for the unit's training activities, such as by check-in with a central dispatch, and listing on a formal activity roster. 3.8.4 The training plan will contain the following elements to qualify for inclusion in workers’ compensation coverage: 3.8.4.1 Identification of the emergency services unit. 3.8.4.2 Definition of the period of time covered by the plan, usually a year. 3.8.4.3 Establishment of the relationship of the ESU with the legal authority. 3.8.4.4 Establishment of the overall plan goals. 3.8.4.5 Broad outline of training plan (that is, field and classroom, equipment maintenance, training outside of the jurisdiction of the agency, and so forth). 3.8.4.6 Specific outline of training plan (such as rappelling, nighttime field navigation, search and fire fighting techniques, medical applications, and so forth). 3.8.4.7 Establishment of criteria for objective satisfaction. 3.8.5 This training plan and activity must address techniques, skills and safety, and must be designed to enable the individual and the unit to meet recognized national standards or other standards as acceptable to the requesting agency. 3.8.6 It is recognized that training for hazardous activity is often hazardous in and of itself, by the nature of the skills that the ESV is required to master. 3.8.7 Since the agency is the beneficiary of this training, the ESV is said to be employed by the agency for the purposes of workers’ compensation benefits while engaging in training as a member of an emergency services unit. Covered training activities are those activities defined as official activities in a memorandum of understanding or other agreement between the ESU and the agency, where the agency is providing workers’ compensation benefits. 3.9 An emergency services volunteer or unit may be requested by an agency to provide public education services. These services may include public appearances, preventative search and rescue (PSAR) programs, air search familiarization for ground search operations, first aid and CPR education, fire prevention education, and others. 3.9.1 When engaged in such activities authorized by the agency, the ESV or ESU is considered to be employed by the agency for the purposes of workers’ compensation insurance.
