Fire Service, Northern Ireland

Fire services, also known as fire and rescue services, respond to emergencies involving fires, accidents and other incidents where people, property or the environment may be at risk. Their work can include extinguishing fires, rescuing people from buildings or vehicles, dealing with road traffic collisions, assisting during flooding and responding to hazardous materials incidents. Crews use specialist vehicles, equipment and protective clothing suited to different types of emergency. These services also work to prevent fires and reduce the impact of emergencies. Typical activities include community fire safety education, advice on smoke alarms and escape plans, and home safety visits for people who may be at greater risk. Fire and rescue authorities have statutory responsibilities for fire safety enforcement in many non-domestic premises, which may involve inspections and guidance on meeting legal requirements.
