The What Firefighters Want in 2025 survey explores your perspectives on the fire service’s safety culture, including your take on the relationship between aggressive firefighting tactics and safety directives. We want to hear about your personal experiences on the fireground as well as your views on your department’s approach to risk, training and fireground tactics.
FireRescue1 values your time and experience. By sharing your feedback here, you’ll join thousands of other firefighters in giving fire service leaders and communities valuable insights and actionable data on the state of firefighter safety. The results of this year’s What Firefighters Want survey will be shared with you throughout the year in FireRescue1 content.
Thank you in advance for your contributions to improving the safety of all firefighters.
Note: Respondents should currently be active with a fire service agency to include career, volunteer, combination and county/state/federal agencies in the United States or Canada. General references to “firefighter” include all ranks, from firefighter to fire chief.
