CivTech Challenge 10.2 - How can technology identify and measure firefighter exposure to contaminants across a wide range of incidents?
- Scottish Fire and Rescue Service
Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-0485e6
Description
Firefighters are routinely exposed to a variety of contaminants during and after fire incidents. These contaminants can include chemical, biological, and particulate matter that pose significant health risks. The issue of contaminant exposure is both an emerging area of concern and study, with the safety of firefighters, staff, and the public being paramount. With contaminants identified, the risks that exposure to contaminants pose to firefighters at an incident, or to firefighters, staff, and members of the public (that come into contact with firefighting personnel and equipment post incident), can be better understood and managed. Having a better understanding of data of contamination by individual and cumulative exposure would be a significant development in further enhancing the safety of firefighters, staff, and the public.
