About This Product

Help firefighters stay fit with NFPA 1583, Standard on Health-Related Fitness Programs for Fire Department Members.

Firefighter fitness affects every aspect of the job, from effectiveness in the field to long-term stress and injury resilience. This is why a fitness program—with properly trained peer fitness trainers and health and fitness coordinators—is a key component of any fire department’s occupational safety and health program. The updated edition of NFPA 1583, Standard on Health-Related Fitness Programs for Fire Department Members, outlines a health-related fitness program that is designed for fire departments and is consistent with today’s best practices.

The first edition of NFPA 1500, Standard on Fire Department Occupational Safety and Health Program, contained language that required the fire departments to develop a physical fitness program for its personnel. Similarly, NFPA 1583, Standard on Health-Related Fitness Programs for Fire Department Members, stays up-to-date with current knowledge and technology to help ensure firefighters stay healthy and fit.
