The fire service is entering a transformative chapter in personal protective equipment (PPE) and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) management with the consolidation of NFPA 1851 and NFPA 1852 into the newly released NFPA 1850 Standard.
Join us for an in-depth webinar designed to prepare fire departments, safety officers and PPE managers for the changes ahead. This MSA-sponsored webinar conducted by FireRescue1 will:
- Provide a comprehensive overview of NFPA 1850, highlighting the major updates, new responsibilities, and what these changes mean for the health and safety of firefighters;
- Cover how the merger of NFPA 1851 (gear) and 1852 (SCBA) affects your department, with a look at the expected implementation timeline and broader impact on the fire service; and
- Explain how program roles are evolving, including the introduction of the PPC Manager and PPE Technician, new interim qualification paths and specific responsibilities for managing contaminated gear and reporting safety concerns.
Presenter: Jeff Stull, President, International Personnel Protection, Inc.
