Firefighter Businesses

Historically, firefighter businesses have been in the construction industry, but with the growth in the diversity of people entering the fire service and a rise in education levels, firefighters are involved in businesses ranging from financial services to website design or ownership.

Firefighters in Savannah work a schedule that readily accommodates, with planning, the operation of small business. In fact, the benefits provided by secure employment with the City of Savannah create a safety net where the entreprenural firefighter can provide a steady income, health insurance and a retirement for his/her family while building their business.

Naturally, balance is the key. Afterall, firefighting is a profession which demands continuous training and education to ensure state and national standards of care are met. In addition, personal professional development are needed to advance in your fire service career.
