Findings From the Wildland Firefighters Human Factors Workshop

A Final Note

The workshop findings and recommendations are not meant to be an end product but rather the beginning of a continuing assessment. It would be a mistake to think that a one-time effort to develop new training or a new organizational structure is enough.

We hope to set in motion a process that will lead to a fire organization that reinvents itself as a high reliability organization where:

• The capacity to learn and adapt are valued and encouraged for the organization and the individual.
  
  
• The people are committed to the principles of CRM on the fireground.
  
  
• Safety and firefighters are number one.
