This study involved five locations, namely the states of Sabah, Selangor, Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang, with 262 respondents. The research tool used is a questionnaire formed by the research group, the Social Work Scale for Disaster Management in PPS (SKSPB- PPS). This research tool consists of Part (A) Demographics and Part (B) Disaster Management Social Work Components, which contain seven components.
