Through the
Fire Fighter Fatality Investigation and
Prevention Program, NIOSH conducts
investigations of fire fighter line-of-duty
deaths to formulate recommendations for
preventing future deaths and injuries. The
program does not seek to determine fault or
place blame on fire departments or
individual fire fighters, but to learn from
these tragic events and prevent future
similar events.
