FRSA Fire Rescue Safety Australia

For clients who have invested in Holmatro Rescue Equipment, FRSA offers in-house or on-site testing and maintenance by experienced, factory trained Service Technicians, but between scheduled servicing, there are a number of critical checks end-users should conduct following every deployment, whether that deployment be actual emergency response operations or training.

Each month, FRSA will post a checklist of instructions from the manufacturer for end-users to refer to when conducting these post-use checks, predominantly focusing on close inspection and lubrication of tools after each use to ensure readiness for immediate deployment.

This month, we will look at user maintenance of CORE Telescopic Rams: https://bit.ly/3PdtHzQ

As a firefighter, your body works hard to keep cool, often needing to evaporate about a litre of sweat every hour. That’s why it’s essential to understand heat stress and how to manage it.

When you’re fighting fires, your body temperature can rise above 38 degrees. Firefighting kit is designed to help keep you in a safe temperature range, which is crucial for your health and well-being. Staying well-hydrated and getting used to the heat are important, but choosing the right Personal Protective Clothing (PPC) is the key to controlling heat stress.
