Safe and sound: Firefighter health and wellbeing

摘要

Today's most advanced firefighter PPE and safety equipment offers far more than simply protection against heat and flame. In recent years, the industry has made great strides, taking full advantage of significant advances in technology. Firefighter PPE can now offer protection from heat, flame and other immediate dangers, such as chemicals and pathogens. However, PPE designers and manufacturers are also working hard to create products and garments that simultaneously protect against new and longer-term hazards faced by firefighters in the modern world. At MSA Safety, we take into consideration a wide variety of potential threats, to comprehensively promote firefighter health and wellbeing now and in the future.
