Firefighter Fatalities and Near Miss Reports

Firefighter fatalities and near miss reports are important safety tools that document serious injuries or deaths among firefighters, as well as incidents that could have resulted in injury or death but did not. These reports help identify hazards, improve safety protocols, and prevent future accidents by analyzing causes and sharing lessons learned. By systematically tracking these events, fire departments can enhance training, equipment, and procedures, ultimately aiming to protect personnel and improve overall operational safety.
