Importance of personal accountability at scene of incident
Personnel accountability mechanisms are the most important in any rescue operations to ensure that rescuers strive to protect themselves and mandatory at emergency scenes.

It also ensures only authorized personnel who are trained and have been provided with specific instruction are operating within the scene of the incident. In most cases, these systems employ the use of badges, lists, tags, use of bar code readers and radio frequency identification (IAFC & NFPA, 2009). Electronically-based systems, such as bar codes and RFIDs, are more often capable of relaying real-time information that can be transmitted to several stations at the same time providing more efficient monitoring and evaluation.
All rescuers in any rescue mission are responsible and accountable for their safety at the incident scene. Therefore, they are expected to abide to the accountability systems put in place. Some of the measures taken to enhance personal accountability may include establishing written guidelines to be used as an inventory of all members involved in any operation. Members will also be expected to follow these guidelines with strict adherence and must comply with the accountability systems being used. An incident leader or rather commander will take responsibility for keeping a worksheet that details all the accountability protocols and is expected to maintain this worksheet throughout the operation. In incidents where the personnel are sub-divided into smaller teams, their team leaders shall be responsible for maintaining the accountability system within that team. Moreover, the incident commander is mandated to limit access to the area where the incident has happened using the appropriate identification procedures that is stipulated within the accountability...

Criminal justice organizations have "varied and complex environments," and are affected by those environments in ways that makes them "malleable" and prone to frequent change (Stojkovie, Kalinich & Klofas, 2015, p. 15-16). Because of this, criminal justice administration reflects the core principles of learning organizations.
