Perhaps no event is more high-risk, low-frequency than when operations start to go wrong at a structure fire. And each time we lose a firefighter at a structure fire, we have an opportunity—and an obligation—to study what went wrong.
In this webinar, Deputy Chief Billy Goldfeder will moderate a discussion with three fire chiefs leading departments that experienced firefighter LODDs at structure fires. These leaders will share the specifics of the incident, details from the post-incident analysis, and the changes they’re making to help prevent a similar incident from recurring.
You’ll learn:
- Lessons from three structural fire incidents where firefighters were killed.
- Leadership and organizational changes to address the root causes of firefighter LODDs.
- 3 common factors contributing to structural firefighter LODDs and how to combat them
