The Canadian Firefighter Cancer Foundation (CFCF) provides accessible, evidence-based resources to help firefighters, families, and departments better understand occupational cancer risks and take proactive steps toward prevention, early detection, and support. Our goal is to centralize reliable information and make it easy to access when it matters most.
Firefighters face increased exposure to carcinogens through smoke, soot, diesel exhaust, and contaminated gear. These exposures can occur during active fire suppression, overhaul, training, and even within station environments. Our resources highlight common risks, exposure pathways, and practical steps firefighters can take to reduce long-term health impacts
Reducing exposure is critical. CFCF provides guidance on best practices including gross decontamination on scene, proper gear cleaning, safe handling of contaminated equipment, station hygiene, and limiting cross-contamination. These preventative measures help departments and individuals adopt safer routines that protect both firefighters and their families.
Early detection saves lives. We share information on recommended screenings, warning signs, and the importance of regular medical checkups. Our resources encourage firefighters to track exposures, understand their risk factors, and seek medical advice when symptoms appear. Proactive monitoring helps improve outcomes and supports long-term health.
CFCF connects users to credible research, national and international studies, and firefighter-specific cancer data. These materials support informed decision-making for firefighters, departments, and policymakers. As new research emerges, this section will continue to grow, ensuring access to the latest knowledge and best practices.
