Risk management is a concept often associated with insurance companies and actuaries – far removed from the split-second decisions required on fire and EMS calls. In fact, risk management permeates everything we do at the fire department – from the morning rig inspection to incident command at a massive warehouse fire, and from casual feedback shared with an engineer about driving speed to a serious disciplinary action brought against a member for harassment.
What’s more, every single person in the fire service plays a critical role in risk management.
In this special edition from FireRescue1, we focus on how risk management matters at every level. You’ll learn:
- Why fire chiefs need to serve as the “Chief Risk Manager” for their departments – and what that entails
- The connection between risk management and training, and the special role the company officer plays in ensuring firefighters are prepared
- How individual firefighters can play a critical role in risk management by following six steps for staying safe on the job
