Standard Occupational Classification (SOC): Firefighting and Prevention Workers

Firefighting and prevention workers are responsible for preventing and extinguishing fires in healthcare facilities. They may be responsible for inspecting the facility to identify potential fire hazards and ensuring that the facility has appropriate fire prevention and suppression systems in place. They may also conduct drills to practice emergency response procedures and provide education and training to facility staff on fire safety procedures.

In the event of a fire, firefighting and prevention workers are responsible for responding to the scene and extinguishing the fire. They may use a variety of tools and equipment, such as fire hoses, axes, and ladders, to control and extinguish the fire. They may also provide emergency medical assistance to injured individuals.

It’s important to note that there are different types of firefighting and prevention workers, including firefighters, fire inspectors, and fire investigators. Firefighters are primarily responsible for responding to fires and providing emergency medical assistance, while fire inspectors and fire investigators are responsible for ensuring that buildings comply with fire safety codes and regulations and for determining the cause of fires, respectively.
