Firefighting is an inherently dangerous activity occurring in an environment over which the participants have no engineering control. NFPA 1500 was developed to provide a "consensus standard for an OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY and HEALTH PROGRAM for the fire service." NFPA 1500 is intended to be an umbrella document, establishing the basic framework for a comprehensive SAFETY and HEALTH PROGRAM , and providing for its implementation and management. NFPA 1500 "is meant to be appropriate for voluntary compliance, as a state of the art document." The PFD will endeavor to adopt NFPA 1500 to the best of its abilities while utilizing available resources.
