Family Liaison Roles 4.1 Police officers performing a family liaison role are called Family Liaison Officers (FLO s) Groups of FLO s are co-ordinated by Police Family Liaison Co-ordinators (FLC s). In the event of a mass disaster the deployment and management of the FLO s/flc s will be co-ordinated by a Single Point of Contact (SPOC) who will be a designated FLC for the incident. 4.2 Those people taking on the role of crisis support workers under the direction of the CSTECG are called Crisis Support Workers (CSW s). Teams of CSW s will be co-ordinated by CSW Team Leaders 4.3 All persons performing the roles of CSW as described in 4.2 above must have received the appropriate training as identified by the CSTECG to allow them to undertake that role. 5. Police Family Liaison Officer (FLO) Roles and Responsibilities 5.1 The role of the FLO involves the day-to-day management of the partnership with the family in the investigation and close liaison with the SIO to ensure families are treated appropriately, professionally and with respect to their needs. 5.2 Their primary function is that of an investigator, and in performing this role officers will offer, give and facilitate support, but will not under any circumstances attempt to assume the responsibility of personally counselling the family. 5.3 Police Family Liaison Officers will gather evidence and information from the family in a manner which contributes to the investigation and preserves its integrity. 5.4 Police Family Liaison Officers are trained to ACPO standard and guidance for them to undertake their role is contained within the Essex Police Family Liaison Strategy. 5.5 In cases of natural disaster Police Family Liaison Officers may be deployed at the discretion of the Chief Officer of Police. 5.6 Prior to CSW contact with the family the FLO will ideally meet with the CSW and share information, Risk Assessments and briefing notes relating to the disaster and family as appropriate. 5.7 The FLO will endeavour to ensure there are regular meetings with the CSW during the joint deployment to update each other concerning on going contacts with the family and to provide additional information relevant to the 4
5 CSW deployment. 6.
