Pompier

Les pompières et les pompiers interviennent en tant que premiers répondants (premiers soins) et combattent les incendies. Ils manœuvrent des échelles, de l’équipement de sauvetage, des pompes, des lances d’incendie, etc. Ils effectuent des sauvetages en hauteur, dans des espaces clos ou à l’intérieur de véhicules accidentés. Dans le cadre de leurs fonctions, ils peuvent avoir à s’assurer du bon fonctionnement du matériel de lutte contre les incendies et à informer le public sur la prévention des incendies. C’est un métier essentiel qui exige courage, altruisme et résistance au stress. Un emploi de pompier convient aux personnes qui aiment travailler en équipe et sont en excellente condition physique.
