IFSJ Comment

The landscape of fire safety is rapidly evolving, influenced by technological advancements and regulatory changes.

The need for skilled professionals in this sector is a reflection of the critical role fire safety plays in safeguarding our communities.

Today’s discussion about the recruitment and development of talent is more than a sector-specific concern; it’s about ensuring that as our buildings become smarter and our construction standards higher, we have the right people with the right skills to design, implement, and manage fire safety systems.

The insights from this webinar could influence how the industry approaches talent acquisition and development, potentially impacting fire safety standards and the wellbeing of citizens across Europe for years to come.
