We are charged with duties ranging from saving lives to keeping firefighting equipment clean. At a
moment's notice, we must be ready to perform job functions such as rescuing people and also
animals from burning or collapsed buildings, fighting fires and providing emergency medical
assistance. In addition to attending emergency call outs and rescuing people and animals from life-
threatening situations, ourduties also entails:
We are also expected to know and frequently train and rehearse for situations in which we save lives,
property and the environment. Cleaning the fire truck, hoses and all other firefighting equipment is
also part of a fireman's recurring responsibilities while awaiting emergency calls.
HUMAN RELATION
This is where the concerns of the people’s issues that involves the interpersonal and organizational
relationships. Human relations is an important part for the organizational success. Every time that
our Municipal Fire Marshal goes to the station, he calls the duty personnel and set a meeting to
addressing our needs, resolving any conflicts and other possible concerns that we need to discuss. As
we all know we are working for one organization that aims for the betterment and continuous
progress of our workplace that is why we should know how can we establish good relationship with
the people within our workplace. Personnel must frequently work together on activities,
communicate ideas and provide motivation to get things done. Without a stable and inviting
workplace culture, difficult challenges can arise both in the logistics of managing personnel and in
the bottom line. Organization with engaging workplaces and a well-trained workforce are more
likely to retain and attract personnel, foster loyalty with customers and more quickly adapt to meet
the needs of the Organization.
ADMINISTRATIVE SKILLS
In order for us to attain the success of the organization and administration, we need to have the skills
that is required to continuously improve, such as communicating, organizing, planning, scheduling,
and computer software skills comprehending word processing, spreadsheets, databases, and
telecommunications. Any person in charge of running an organization must have strong
administration skills, which include both organizational and technical skills, to make sure the work is
completed in an organized and efficient manner. And the work of an administrative personnel
nowadays has been enhanced by advance computer technology, so as an admin personnel should
have familiarize to the computer skills such word processing, spreadsheets, etc., to make work more
faster and efficient.
During our duty, first thing we learned was to observe different tasks in different areas of work at the
office. It was difficult for us at the beginning but as day goes by asking queries, offering ourselves in
which we can use our skills and knowledge in administrative works, we managed to understand little
by little on how the fire station works aside from fire prevention and suppression. Following the
protocols, courtesy and chain of commands, I learned how the officers work hand on hand on daily
basis, observing the according to their station order given by the MFM and with this, it made me
appreciate them more in their service with the people and community of Sasmuan.
I learned that permits must be signed and complied with Fire Department according to Fire Code.
And all important documents must be signed with the knowledge of MFM. The Public must be
properly informed by the fire department and all the activities throughout the year must be complied
as per the instruction given by the Bureau of Fire Protection. Fire safety inspection for every
building, establishment, occupational or none, business or private must comply with the Fire Code of
the Philippines. Working as fire trainees and OJT, we have learned the administrative duties and
responsibilities of fire stations here in the Municipality of Sasmuan. We were oriented always on the
latest requirements to be reported to the Provincial Offices up to the Regional Offices to be
submitted by all the stations that will be sent to the National Office.

Laptops are nice, but they can be bulky and lack the functionality of tablet computers. I use an iPad, and it
has some excellent features and great apps, most of which were free. Tablets feature multiple means of
communication, including email and instant messaging apps. The photo app, standard with the device,
allows you to easily send pictures via email, Facebook or Twitter, allowing others to see what you’re seeing
in the field. Real-time information can be quickly communicated to decision-makers or to the troops in the
field to guide them on what to do. One great app is WISER, which can tie in your location and weather, and
help determine where a chemical plume is going—right now. I also use the I am responding app, which
allows me to track who’s on duty and who’s responding, right in the palm of my hand. And I can use it to
quickly update my own availability. There is an extrication app for hybrid vehicles called Hybrid Vehicle
Extrication Guide, which points out these vehicles’ unique hazards. Multiple apps allow me to track weather
radar for planning purposes, and the Google Earth app shows street views of buildings and other site
information. I’d like tablets to ultimately replace our MDTs and, fortunately, tablet technology is only
getting better.
Trend#2: Drones
It’s called the “fog of war” for a reason, and it applies to fire/rescue operations almost as much as the
battlefield. We try to glean as much information as possible about what’s going on in order to make good
decisions (situational awareness), but it’s often challenging to understand the big picture of what’s occurring
around us from a position on the ground. Incident commanders have used helicopters for recon, gone up on
roofs and aerials, and employed other creative means to get that big picture, but we may now have a better
option. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs or “drones”) are being marketed to the fire service. Some were
on display at FDIC this year. Much like how unmanned bomb and SWAT robots give law enforcement a
closer look at dangerous situations from a remote location, UAVs can provide firefighters a better view of an
incident scene—and without placing personnel at risk or having to rely on helicopters, which come with a
much heftier price tag. UAVs are becoming more and more simple to use, and can provide both video and
infrared imaging to the command post and other operating units. Are there concerns about privacy and “eye
in the sky” issues? Certainly, and they need to be addressed through department SOPs/SOGs and effective
supervision.
As we sit here and contemplate how to manage incidents in the future, entrepreneurs, engineers, architects
and others are thinking about new materials to use in buildings and new ways to construct those buildings.
We must continue to monitor what is going on in the building industry, and what is being built in our own
community. Get out and take photos of buildings being constructed in your area—at least weekly. You
become the de facto historian of the buildings in your coverage area, and those photos may pay big
dividends later. I have an outpatient cancer center in my coverage area that looks like a simple office
building, but behind the windows at one end are 4-foot-thick walls that protect a room with 8,000-lb. doors.
Those doors lead to two more rooms that house equipment that uses gamma radiation. We were able to get
photos of the building during construction, which was great because we never would have been able to get
photos showing those walls again.
Realistic firefighter training is essential for ensuring safe operations at true emergencies. Realistic training
remains inherently hazardous, though policies and safety procedures have provided for a much greater
degree of safety over the past twenty years. Because fire suppression operations are also inherently
dangerous, the fire service should train firefighters in as close to actual conditions as possible, while
protecting them in the process. The challenge for firefighters to push themselves to the boundaries of their
capabilities is necessary for long-term firefighter survival.
Since we have lack time about firefighting during our training, it’s hard for us how to operate the fire trucks.
So we request to our Municipal Fire Marshal to have Firefighting training on our OJT, and our request was
granted. The Chief Operation of Floridablanca Fire Station thought us how to operate the fire trucks, shows
the placement of the hoses, PPE’s and other equipments. This training will help us to make our work faster
and efficient in case of fire, especially firefighting is our main function.
My observation about our respective fire station, it has enough space to park our two fire trucks at our
garage, but the station is clean, and well-organized, and the personnel treat each other as part of the family.
And the organization was also organized, the personnel on duty were divided into 2 shifts and every
personnel have their respective designation or main functions. Personnel are frequently work together on
activities, communicate ideas and provide motivation to get things done. They also provide us training in
firefighting, teaching us on administrative skill, technical skill which will benefit us to develop and enhance
our skills and which can lead our way to be a professional firefighter.
Firefighting is a specialized job which requires professional knowledge, training, skills and resources with
professional working understating among emergency services and community. The fire emergency response
can be improved through coordination, ongoing enhancement of skills of firefighters, establishing incident
command system, timely provision of resources, in time repair of equipment, community awareness through
seminars, community education through safety and implementation of fire safety standards in buildings or
establishment.
