The work of a firefighter is inherently dangerous and filled with uncertainties from day to day – will the department be called to a vehicle accident, personal illness emergency, or structure fire today? Preparation through the development and maintenance of a positive safety culture will help to assure that personnel act in a safe, professional manner regardless of the situation and conditions. The Comp Alliance Risk Management team will present a webinar focusing on major safety hazards facing our member fire departments and controls to utilize in a maximum effort to keep employees safe. We will look at statistics on fire fighter fatalities along with their root contributing factors, and review the importance of Personal Protective Equipment – a firefighter’s most important tool to stay alive and safe under dangerous conditions. Please join the Director of Loss Control, Robert Blaisdell, and Senior Risk Control Specialist, Joe Rupinski, on this virtual webinar program. We will also allow for a question and answer portion to address your concerns with respect to firefighter workplace safety, including controls during the continued pandemic conditions.
