There are a number of on-the-job hazards for firefighters, not the least of which includes the possibility of contamination from hazardous materials; this inherent danger has steadily increased with the growing incidence of bioterrorism. What once was comprised of oil tanker spills and other relatively simple operations has been overshadowed by a more devious and extremely fatal situation of bioterrorist activity. In order to offset the chance of contamination – whether that might originate from something as seemingly burning plastic or the life-and-death threat of anthrax, chemical warfare’s most potent weapon -- protective uniforms and equipment are employed to effectively shield the firefighter. The first priority when encountering any field emergency is to assess the safety of the fire scene as well as the chemical source. The writer discusses how this makes a special set of assessment skills and protocol a requirement as a means by which to determine firefighter safety. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
