(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 19, 2012 ) Salt Lake City, UT -- Literally, firefighting takes parts on suppressing fire operations but this is not the only aspect of the job. Firefighters also provide emergency medical service. Eighty percent of calls that fore departments get are for emergency care to accidents, heart attacks, home accidents and drowning. When firefighters are not responding to emergency calls, fire fighters do other activities such as public service work, community education and other community service programs.
“As a firefighter, I do more than just putting out the fire,” Alex said, a firefighter from Queens said. “My job is very versatile but most of the time we do community work to make the public safer. You can get a lot of information about these programs from FirefighterSalaryGuide.org. There is no other site that I would recommend to aspiring firefighters when it comes to understanding the firefighting profession.”
