Importance of Firefighter Safety

The importance of firefighter safety: It is the highest priority

CFA working environment is constantly changingand can be inherently hazardous

To maintain effectiveness, crews need to be assafe as reasonably practical

Injury or illness will reduce crew effectiveness and

can place the entire crew in danger

Respond to Marine


Session Outline

Session Objectives: Identify general incident scene hazards, including

smoke, dust, sunburn, dehydration, heat illness,lifting injuries, working on or around vehicles,electricity, traffic, darkness, noise and slipperysurfaces

Implement control measures to eliminate/minimisegeneral incident scene hazards


21/114

Respond to Marine


Session Outline

Topics covered in this session: Smoke, dust and airborne pollutants (Asbestos)

Fatigue

Heat related illnesses

Lifting related injuries Working on and around vehicles

Electricity

Traffic

Noise Slippery surfaces

Working in darkness


22/114

Respond to Marine


General Hazards

Smoke and dust: Can irritate the eyes and lungs

Inhalation can reduce performance, increasefatigue, lead to illness and affect judgement

Smoke contains carbon monoxide, which ispoisonous and inhalation can result in seriousinjury or death

Can reduce visibility

Avoid unnecessary exposure and wear appropriate

eye and respiratory protection.


23/114

Respond to Marine


General Hazards

Fatigue: Conditions at the fire ground can be physically

stressful

Fatigue can affect performance and lead to

mistakes

Symptoms include slow reactions, impairedjudgement, inability to make decisions/concentrateand erratic performance

Treat by taking regular breaks in the shade/away

from wind and rain, pacing work, drinking water and

eating energy foods, and avoid working in excessive

smoke and heat


24/114

Respond to Marine


General Hazards

Sunburn: Can reduce effectiveness at an incident

Limit the amount of exposed skin with appropriate PPC.Regularly apply water resistant sunscreen with a SPF

factor of at least 30+. Apply cool, moist compresses to

the affected areas. Rest in a cool place and drink cool

water and an electrolyte replacement pack.


25/114

Respond to Marine


General Hazards

Dehydration: Occurs if fluids lost through perspiration are not

replaced

Thirst is not a true indication of how much water

the body needs. Levels of perspiration are a betterindication

Plain cool water alternated with an

electrolyte drink is best. Drink at least 150 to200ml of water every 10 15 minutes. (for

continuous physical work on the fireline).

Wind changes can turn a relatively safe flank fireinto a deadly head fire in a matter of seconds

In these situations flames up to 40 m high aremoving at maximum speed and cannot be outrun(Dead Man zone)

Fire accelerates rapidly when moving uphill

Key points:

You need to ensure you and your crew dont

end up anywhere near the Dead Man Zone
