  • Firefighting in the New Economy: Changes in Skill and the Impact of Technology
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FIREFIGHTING IN THE NEW ECONOMY: CHANGES IN SKILL AND THE IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY Brian W. Ward, Ph.D., 2010 Directed By: Dr. Bart Landry, Department of Sociology To better understand the shift in workers’ skills in the New Economy, a case study of professional firefighters ( n= 42) was conducted using semi-structured interviews to empirically examine skill change and the impact of technology. A conceptual model was designed by both introducing new ideas and integrating traditional and contemporary social theory. The first component of this model categorized firefighters’ skills according to the job-context in which they occurred, including: fire related emergencies, non-fire related emergencies, the fire station, and non-fire non-emergencies. The second component of this model drew from Braverman’s (1998/1974) skill dimension concept and was used to identify both the complexity and autonomy/control-related aspects of skill in each job-context. Finally, Autor and colleagues’ (2002) hypothesis was adapted to determine if routinized components of skill were either supplemented or complemented by new technologies. The findings indicated that skill change among firefighters was clearly present, but not uniform across job-contexts. A substantial increase in both the complexity and autonomy/control-related skill dimensions was present in the non-fire emergency context (particularly due to increased EMS-related skills). In fire emergencies, some skills diminished across both dimensions (e.g., operating the engine’s pump), yet others had a slight increase due to the introduction of new technologies. In contrast to these two contexts, the fire station and non-fire non- emergency job-contexts had less skill change.

  • LAFD - Emergency Preparedness Bookletjanuary 2007 Edition PAGE 1 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
    LosLos AngAngeleseles FFiriree DeparDepartmenttment EmerEmerggencyency PrPrepareparednessedness Don't Ignorethe need for Emergency Preparedness This book is available on the web at: http://www.cert-la.com/2007EmergPrepBooklet.pdf JANUARY 2007 © LAFD - Emergency Preparedness BookletJANUARY 2007 Edition PAGE 1 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS To those of us who live and work in the Greater Los Angeles area, earthquakes and other natural emergencies are a reality. In order to deal with this situation, emergency preparedness must become a way of life. In the event of a major earthquake or disaster, freeways and surface streets may be impassable and public services could be interrupted or taxed beyond their limits. Therefore, everyone must know how to provide for their own needs for an extended period of time, whether at work, home, or on the road. Our goal in distributing this booklet is to encourage you to prepare for a major disaster and to maintain that readiness. Part of becoming ready is having the necessary supplies. Earthquakes and major disasters, in our area, can happen at any time. They are not totally predictable. There may be long periods between disasters. This is why it is important to maintain fresh emergency supplies through rotation of older stock into daily use. The quality of life and the potential for survival are greatly increased by being prepared. Fire Chief Los Angeles Fire Department As a covered entity under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the City of Los Angeles does not discriminate on the basis of disability and, upon request, will provide reasonable accommodation to ensure equal access to its programs, services, and activities.

Vigiano II (Ladder Company 132) and Detective 2nd Grade Joseph V. Vigiano (NYPD- Emergency Services Truck 2) and all of the first responders who gave their lives on September 11, 2001 The first responders that fateful day, were true professionals who knew the risks and dangers that awaited them in those buildings. They never wavered or deviated from their assignments when they entered the towers. They provide inspiration to us as family members and as members of the FDNY. It is our hope that this manual will benefit other young professionals in their careers as firefighters. 4 FDNY FORCIBLE ENTRY REFERENCE GUIDE December, 2006 TECHNIQUES AND PROCEDURES INTRODUCTION The objective of this manual is to provide the reader a comprehensive study of forcible entry. Although it cannot cover every aspect or technique of this demanding skill, it does cover those techniques that have proven to be successful for members of the FDNY. The skill of forcible entry has been part of the fire service since its inception. The ingenuity and foresight of many talented people developed these techniques, which were then handed down through the generations of firefighters by “on-the-job training.” It is our privilege to honor these people for providing the motivation and drive to put this material together.

  • Jersey Tactical CLAW SUMMARY MORE INFORMATION the Holy Grail of Breaching Tools Is That One Tool That Does Every Task
    FEATURE Jersey Tactical CLAW SUMMARY MORE INFORMATION The holy grail of breaching tools is www.jerseytactical.com that one tool that does every task. www.themilogroup.com For the patrol officer, Jersey Tacti- www.combinedsystems.com cal has just about done it with their CLAW. Designed for the average patrol officer, the CLAW may be the perfect companion to the patrol rifle in response to the Active Shooter. The CLAW has the weight and sharp edges to break glass and has the toothed pry edges to rake glass. Or the CLAW can be used to pry out the entire window and frame. JERSEY TACTICAL CLAW THE PERFECT TOOL FOR PATROL RESPONSE TO ACTIVE SHOOTER By LAW and ORDER Staff 52 LAW and ORDER I March 2013 However, don’t get confused on names or the fire department legacy of most entry tools. The JTC CLAW is not a firefighter’s “claw tool.” The age-old claw tool had a hook on one end and a fork on the other. The generic claw tool is about 30 inches long, weighs about 12 pounds, and is still being made. While similar in size and weight, the CLAW has a totally different working end from a claw tool. The police-oriented CLAW is definitely not a fire-oriented claw tool. Even though many police breaching tools came from firefighters, a quick glance at the CLAW shows the tool is something like a squared-off, 10-pound sledge that has morphed into a three- Chain and padlocks are the latest Active Shooter trick. The CLAW can finger claw.
