<p>The <b>State Emergency Service</b> (<b>SES</b>) is the name used by a number of separate <a href="Civil_defence" class="mw-redirect" title="Civil defence">civil defence</a> organisations in <a href="Australia" title="Australia">Australia</a> that provide assistance during and after major incidents. Specifically, the services deal with <a href="Flood" title="Flood">floods</a>, <a href="Storm" title="Storm">storms</a> and <a href="Tsunami" title="Tsunami">tsunamis</a>, but can also assist in other emergencies, such as vertical rescue and road crash rescues, missing persons searches, and medical evacuations. In other scenarios the SES may provide a support role to other agencies, particularly police and fire. The SES is operational 24 hours a day. The SES is constituted as separate organisations operating in the various <a href="States_and_territories_of_Australia" title="States and territories of Australia">Australian states and territories</a>. Eight of the SES organisations co-ordinate through the Australian Council of State and Territory Emergency Services (ACSES).

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>During World War II the National Emergency Service was created on 1 February 1939 to provide <a href="Air_raid_warden" class="mw-redirect" title="Air raid warden">air raid wardens</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The organisation was disbanded six months after the end of the war.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The Civil Defence Service began in Australia in 1955. It was formed as a precaution to any potential attacks on Australian soil. The name was changed to the "State Emergency Service" (abbreviated to "SES") during the 1970s, to reflect a change of emphasis into providing emergency help related to <a href="Flood" title="Flood">floods</a>, <a href="Storm" title="Storm">storms</a> and other natural emergencies. Every state and territory in Australia has its own State (or Territory) Emergency Service, and there are 43,000 volunteers spread across the country. Each state or territory is broken into <i>regions</i>, then <i>units</i>, and finally <i>groups</i> or <i>teams</i>.

</p><p>The SES is one of many public safety organisations using <a href="Australasian_Inter-Service_Incident_Management_System" title="Australasian Inter-Service Incident Management System">AIIMS</a> (Australasian Inter-Service Incident Management System). Typically, small (Level 1) incidents are assigned to a 'unit' and dealt with by a 'team' while larger and/or more complex (Level 2 or 3) incidents are coordinated at the regional level.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Agency_Executives">Agency Executives</h2></div>

<p>Each State Emergency Service has an Executive appointed by the Minister responsible for each state.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Funding">Funding</h2></div>

<p>In addition to funds provided through legislation to the SES by state and local governments, SES groups also supplement their financial resources with donations made by individuals and businesses, and through other government grants. These donations typically contribute to purchasing or maintaining group equipment, such as vehicles and tools, or to improvement of SES property and facilities.
