OBJECTIVE: Measurement of Recruit capability to complete inverted “L” cutting technique on a roll-up door and disable hinges with a gasoline powered rotary saw and metal cutting blade. SCENARIO: Recruit is member of first arriving truck crew at a commercial building fire, one roll-up door and an outward swinging conventional hinged door need to be rapidly failed to facilitate engine crew entry. PROPS & EQUIPMENT NEEDED:

1. Roll-up door simulator with available material. (Each student will use similar material for the test.) 2. Available rotary saw, either K-12 or 950, inboard or outboard, with new blade. The student is to attach blade

and test the specific saw used in the test. (Note the occasional difficulty with the 950 flange.) 3. Three sections of heavy gauge flat-steel (4” vertically) attached at points next to roll-up door to simulate hinges

(ends exposed minimum of 2" horizontally). 4. Full P.P.E. for Recruits, including SCBA.

ESTABLISH TESTING ENVIRONMENT:

1. The entire inverted “L” maneuver is not done, but will be demonstrated after the manipulative phase of the test. 2. Available “Cut Lines” are identified by the instructor. The Student will identify the specific line used for the

test. a. Horizontal cut minimum (5’) long above shoulder height. b. Vertical cut minimum (4’)

3. “Hinge” cuts are then cut in order – lowest, middle, highest. 4. Start time when instructor tells Recruit to lock-in regulator 5. End time when Recruit stops saw and disconnects regulator.

6. Inverted “L” maneuver is explained to the instructor / drawn on dry erase board. GRADING CRITERIA: 2-Improvement Points

1. Poor feed speed, RPM’s decrease 2. Horizontal cut below shoulder height 3. Each occurrence of poor control of saw. (i.e., bouncing, delay in starting cut) 4. Inverted “L” drawing incorrect (direction / numbering)

5-Improvement Points (AND FAILURE OF EVENT)

1. Incomplete cut on roll-up door. 2. Incorrect hinge cutting sequence. 3. Lateral or side loading of blade. (Indicated by diagonal, notched or offset kerf or blade fragmentation.) 4. Using building / wall to stabilize self / saw during hinge cuts 5. Inability to accomplish task within 4-minutes 6. Unable to explain the inverted “L” process 7. Unsafe acts / inability to control saw. 8. Inability to start saw 9. Cut begins / extends 6” beyond indicated points.

The "offer of employment" letter sent to Recruits in October of 1940 by Chief A. C. Duree contains a description of professional behavior that rings true today.

"You have been selected from the eligible list for appointment to the position of firefighter on this department. The fact that you passed your examination and placed on the list shows you were anxious to secure this position. I want you to understand that it is up to you to make your position here secure. You will be furnished with the necessary knowledge and material required for the duties of firefighter, and it will be up to you to hold the job. [Emphasis added]

LONG BEACH FIRE DEPARTMENT RECRUIT TRAINING

COUNSELING FORM

NAME: Recruit Xxxxx DATE: November 15, 2002 LOCATION: Training Center REASON FOR COUNSELING: Accrual of 75 Improvement Points During the block III skills exam Recruit Xxxxx accrued 28 improvement points bringing his total to 93 improvement points. According to The Introduction to Recruit Fire Training, a formal counseling will take place whenever 75 points are accrued. The firefighter's job is one of the most hazardous of all occupations. Recruit firefighters are trained to function in a safe and proficient manner consistent with the aggressive fire fighting nature of the Department. Carelessness in any work routine, drill, or simulated emergency can result in serious injury or death. Therefore, up to five improvement points will be assessed for each safety violation. Repeated failure to comply with Department safety policies, practices and procedures, will result in a recommendation for termination. Recruit Xxxxx has been accumulating improvement points at a rapid rate since starting the operations portion of the Recruit Academy. Recruit Xxxxx has received coaching sessions and formal counseling sessions at 25, and 50 improvement points. In those sessions, among other things, we discussed safety as it applies to both manipulative exercises and simulated emergency responses and attitude. “As a Recruit you are expected to make mistakes while learning new skills. That is why you are in the

Academy. If you make a mistake, admit it, correct it and move on to the next challenge. But, mistakes cannot go on forever.”

Recruit Xxxxx listens attentively during lectures and asks questions pertinent to the subject. He accepts responsibility for his mistakes, listens attentively to corrective coaching and tries to apply the techniques or information in subsequent evolutions. Recruit Xxxxx is to be cautioned that the points he accrued today represent potential delays in evolutions or safety concerns that jeopardize his safety, that of his crew or any potential victims that he may encounter during emergency operations. The consequences of these actions have been emphasized during classroom lectures, NIOSH reports, and “impact” videos. The rapid accrual of improvement points have raised some serious concerns among the Training Staff as to Recruit Xxxxx’s ability to operate safely in the field. Recruit Xxxxx is cautioned that 93 improvement points is a very significant amount at this stage in the academy. Recruit Xxxxx is cautioned that safe, competent performance of skills and satisfactory academic performance is necessary to successfully pass this academy. If 110 improvement points are accrued a recommendation for termination will be forwarded to the Director of Training. I HAVE BEEN COUNSELED ON THIS DATE SIGNATURE COUNSELORS

(AESOP Model) Once a hazard has been detected,

evaluate it to determine its potential effect on the planned flight

by considering its impact on the:

The analysis should consider the crew's relative ability

to cope with changes in each of the five basic elements

listed in the AESOP model.

Good decisions optimize risk management

and minimize errors, while poor decisions can increase

them.

Poor judgment or decision making is a leading cause of failure to complete missions and of

mishaps.

Each decision affects your future options.
