FIREFIGHTER RISK

  • The World Health Organization has designated the occupation of firefighting as a KNOWN CARCINOGEN
  • Soot may sit on the skin for up to 2 hours after exposure

  • The higher the body temperature, the more permeable the skin
  • Firefighters are at higher risk of certain cancers than the general population
  • Firefighters are developing more aggressive forms of cancer at a younger age
  • 68% of Line of Duty Deaths are from cancer

REDUCE THE RISK

  • Conduct “Preliminary Exposure Reduction” on-scene
  • Use wipes to remove soot from the skin immediately
  • Bag dirty turnout gear and tools
  • Shower within the hour

  • Clean turnout gear, equipment, and tools after every exposure to products of combustion
  • Document exposures at fire calls

Reduce your risk to cancers caused by exposure to the chemicals in soot.

The smart way to cleanup after a fire.
