The Fire Department Safety Officers Association was
established in 1989 as a non-profit association. Its mission is to promote safety standards
and practices in the fire, rescue and emergency services community. The
association is led by a volunteer board of directors and has a small staff to
handle day-to-day operations. FDSOA is the association dedicated to the issues
that affect your critical role as safety officer in protecting and promoting
the safety and health responsibilities you have to your department, your
community and yourself. So critical is the role of the safety officer in every
department, FDSOA offers training, ProBoard Certifications and the Health and
Safety Conference for the incident safety officer and health safety officer.
For emergency vehicle technicians and fleet services, FDSOA offers the Fire
Apparatus, Safety and Equipment Conference. The association works to help you
achieve proficiency, promote the recognition of your skills and secure your
future.
