Description
Firefighters are not only heroes serving their community, but also husbands, wives, parents, siblings, friends and neighbours, who run toward danger while we seek safety. The physical and mental costs of this bravery are known all too well by firefighters and their loved ones. We owe them our gratitude and so much more.
“B.C. firefighters have been asking for greater protection on the job and our government is listening. We are working hard to provide firefighters with better access to workers’ compensation, along with health and mental-health supports. Most recently, we expanded the list of work-related cancers – including adding gender-specific cancers – to make it easier for firefighters to access the care and compensation they deserve.
