PCL 1: Impacts on Work and Families of Rescue Team Members by Teh

Occupational Danger
- Unpredicatable time (for urgent situation like landslide, accidents, finding people lost in the Jungle like Sima's case)
- They are exposed to dangers and injuries while carrying out their work (seacrh and rescue people)
- Worse case scenario: injury --> death

Family
- They will be worried about their safety.
- If death occur to the rescue member -->Traumatic for the family, grief, shocked

Society
- Respect from the community for act of patriotism/saving poeple's life

However, those that volunteered joining the rescue teams, are mostly covered with insurance policy (as it is advised to have one) (http://www.mvfra.org/index.html)
