Our values and mission as an organisation
Our values and responsibilities
We're committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the people of Scotland.
You may think that our role is pretty straightforward, - to prevent and control fires but, we do so much more than that.
We respond to many different emergency incidents to help keep our communities safe. These include:
- road traffic collisions
- rope rescue
- water rescue
- hazardous materials
- flooding
- assisting our partner agencies
The best way to deal with an emergency is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Our role starts before any 999 call is made. We work with key partners to deliver fire safety messages and create safer communities.
We have four value that we live and work by:
- Safety
- Teamwork
- Respect
- Innovation
It is about how we do things, how we treat others, what we say and how we say it, and how we expect to be treated. You can read more in our values document.
It is our mission to work together for a safer Scotland. In doing so, we can help reduce the instance of fire and play a key role in the safety and wellbeing of the people of Scotland.
