Abstract

In the last few years, the number and severity of natural disasters is growing, especially floods. This phenomenon does not bypass V4 countries. Lower government levels of crisis management are confronted with many requirements. Their objective is to ensure the desired level of prevention of crisis events, as well as the ability to effectively respond to real threats to residents and property. This is associated with the need to optimally decide and subsequently effectively use the available resources needed to solve natural disasters. The main aim of this paper is to proposals flood reaction model followed by the evacuation of the population. The authors deal with the issue of optimizing decisionmaking processes, while emphasizing its practical application for lower government levels of V4 country (Slovak Republic, Czech Republic, Republic of Poland, and Republic of Hungary). The main reason for the focus of the paper is due to the constant increase in the number of floods in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe as well as the absence of the model in V4 countries. The paper is divided into a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part contains a comparison of crisis management systems in V4 countries. The practical part consists of the processes and proposal of the flood reaction model followed by the evacuation of the population in the conditions of V4 countries. The model is shown in the form of an algorithm with a detailed defined analysis of the competence and tasks of lower government levels on a section of crisis management. For a better view, the model is divided into three logically and methodically follow-up phases.
