During firefighting and rescue operations there is a high probability that rescuers will come into contact with ionizing radiation and radiation contamination. The firemen of the State Fire Service and the Volunteer Fire Service perform a number of tasks during the action [Obwieszczenie Marszałka Sejmu… 2009], for which they are prepared during exercises and theoretical sessions. A significant reduction in the probability of radiation or radiation contamination risk can be achieved by taking appropriate precautions and following certain rules and procedures. The actions at which ionizing radiation occurs take place very rarely and procedures are regulated by the “Rules of conduct in the event of radiation risk” [Komenda Główna… 2009] annexed to the “Rules of the organization of chemical and environmental rescue in the National Firefighting and Rescue System” [Komenda Główna… 2013]. The aim of this article is to present the possibilities of protecting the rescue team during fire and rescue operations associated with the potential presence of radioactive materials at the scene.

An efficiently working fire protection system in an enterprise, a work place or an institution guarantees the proper execution of fire protection duties. Its proper organisation is of key importance. The conditions of the proper organisation of the fire protection system in a given organisational unit are above all the universality in the scope of using applicable provisions, knowledge of applicable provisions, appropriately exercised supervision of usage of applicable provisions, orders and established rules of conduct. The aim of this paper is to specify the most important duties of owners, users or managers in providing protection against fire or other local risks. This results from the fact that given the variety of operating enterprises, the character of their activity, kind of production and used technology, size, fire risk, etc. it is not possible to determine a standard model of a fire protection system for a particular work place.
