Firefighters need to be protected.
Firefighters face a great risk of occupational diseases and should be safeguarded. Healthy Firefighters shows why, how and what can be done to prevent firefighter occupational cancer and other diseases.
Clean and protective clothing
Firefighters should be able to start their shift in full, clean protective clothing, and be able to protect their airways and skin in all situations. Gear, equipment, and tools should be decontaminated every time they have been exposed to products of combustion. It is also essential that routines separate contaminated items from clean ones when transporting and when handling at the fire station.
Skelleftea model
Healthy Firefighters – the Skellefteå Model is a collaborative project aimed at preventing occupational health hazards among firefighters. Now adopted as the standard in 17 European countries, the “Healthy Firefighters” project provides concise decontamination protocols which can improve firefighters’ health and well-being.
