The purpose of this paper is to explore the policy feedback from residents and civil servants in disaster areas. To understand the difference of perception and satisfaction between residents and civil servants, the survey and interviews were conducted about disaster relief logistics and disaster relief inventories. We found that civil servants who were in charge of disaster tasks worked less than 5 years and felt that the lack of relief supplies were more likely to have different perception about the relief system from their residents. The survey also highlighted the impact of the inter-organizational relationships and the combined abilities of the civil servants on the performance of logistics centers. It shows that the level of commitment to disaster relief, communication, and trust has a positive effect on the overall performance in the logistics centers. Furthermore, an integrated management system of disaster relief logistics will provide a better environments for civil servants and residents in preventing and handling disasters.

The purpose of this study is to examine the equity factors that affect fire officers’ job satisfaction to improve the treatment of fire officers. According to the results of the analysis, perceived equity has an effect on fire officers’ job satisfaction. That is, distributive equity and internal equity have a significant positive effect on job satisfaction, and in particular, distributive equity has the most positive effect on job satisfaction among other factors. According to previous studies, the perception of equity of fire officers is obtained in a stepwise process. After obtaining distributive equity, fire officers begin to perceive procedural equity and internal equity. Thus, distributive equity is the basic stage in developing equity in fire officers’ working environments. Hence, this study suggests the fostering of a fair workplace that directly relates to the fire officers’ distributive equity such as rewards, incentives, and job promotions so that they can develop personal careers.
