The Gyeonggi-do Fire and Disaster Headquarters conducted a "Comprehensive Safety Training for Firefighters" over four days from the 22nd to the 25th at the Gyeonggi-do Fire Academy and Special Response Unit located in Yongin.


This training simulated emergency situations such as entrapment and isolation of personnel during field operations, applying self-rescue and emergency escape techniques as well as rapid intervention team (RIT) operation methods to provide realistic scenarios.


A total of 210 participants, including rescue team leaders, on-site command team leaders, rescue personnel, and suppression personnel from 35 fire stations across the province, took part in the training.


The Fire and Disaster Headquarters expects that those who completed the training will pass on the on-site safety securing training to rescue and suppression personnel at each fire station, significantly contributing not only to the safety of firefighters but also to the safety of the residents.



Jo Seon-ho, head of the Gyeonggi-do Fire and Disaster Headquarters, stated, "The frequency of environments exposing firefighters to accident risks during various disaster responses is increasing. We will prioritize accident prevention by analyzing the causes and cases of safety accidents according to types of on-site firefighting activities and will expand such education and training."
