Abstract

This paper sheds light to the crucial role being played by army officers not just in the site of interest which is Philippines but also in almost all countries taking into consideration security practices and Incident Command System on safety procedures. In effect, as to the significant differences in the assessment of the respondents on the internal security practices of the Philippine Army considering variables of the present study where p values are generally higher than the level of significance, has resulted to the acceptance of the null hypothesis of no significant difference. This presupposes that intervening variables move in a somewhat the same direction but different magnitude. In the context of the current academic piece, this implies that respondents are performing satisfactorily their functions in acquiescence to the commanding authority and is compliant with ICS. After careful scrutiny of data, researchers recommend that Philippine Army shall issue relevant policies for authorization of its personnel to visit other offices nationwide. On operational security, the P.A.’s treasury office or finance office shall be secured properly by security personnel or military police. For future researches, relevant studies may be conducted to a widened scope to improve the internal security practices of the P.A. exploring other relevant variables and its compliance to the security management system. As for international security standards, benchmarking on safety practices and procedures among allied countries be cultivated and reinforced to ameliorate its treaty and ensure its international resiliency against potential threat both natural and man-made.
