It’s not that easy to become a fireman nowadays. A fireman is supposed to deal with unexpected situations, and he should have good communication skills and be self-disciplined at the same time.

　　In order to be a good fireman, one must undergo strict local fire department’s training program after passing all the tests. All the fire departments conclude a two-to-four-month course, including classroom training and practical training that cover firefighting techniques, fire avoidance, dangerous materials and urgent situation medical actions. Completing this training, trainees go through the department’s trial period of service that can last from three to six months, depending on the methods of selection.

　　Firemen usually work both indoors and outdoors. They have to be on duty at all times and mostly work in shifts of at least 8 hours. They are also provided with several benefits which include medical aid plans, pension fund, annual leave and many more.
