NFPA 1582: Standard on Comprehensive Occupational Medical Program for Fire Departments incorporates current research and knowledge to present the latest provisions for a comprehensive occupational medical program. To help fire departments ensure that personnel are medically capable of performing their required duties, this critical Standard provides separate chapters for the medical evaluation of candidates/prospective employees and for the occupational medical and fitness evaluations for fire department members. Requirements are equated against the essential job tasks based on several NFPA® Professional Qualification Standards and apply to career, volunteer, private, industrial, governmental, and military fire departments.
