Fire Station Contamination Zones – Voiceover Script Hello. Across the Fire and Rescue Service, we’re becoming more aware of the long-term health effects of exposure to fire contaminants and carcinogens. To help protect everyone, contamination control starts right here — in our fire stations. Every station is divided into three distinct zones— Red, Amber, and Green— each with its own rules designed to reduce cross-contamination. Let’s take a look at what each zone means… --- Red Zone – The Dirty Zone The Red Zone is the dirty area — the operational space where contamination risks are highest. This is where firefighters, PPE, and equipment may still carry residue, soot, or carcinogenic particles from incidents. It includes areas such as the BA servicing room or any small spaces used to unload or store dirty kit. Because of the risk, entry of contaminated personnel, PPE, or equipment into Green Zones directly from a Red zone is strictly prohibited. Everything in the Red Zone must be treated as potentially contaminated until properly cleaned. --- Amber Zone – The Transitional Zone The Amber Zone is the buffer between the dirty and clean areas — a transitional space that helps control movement and prevent spread. Here, suitably clean firefighting kit can be worn, and equipment that’s been decontaminated can be brought in. Think of this zone as a controlled handover point — where dirty items stop, and clean ones begin. Movement from Red to Amber should only happen once decontamination procedures are complete. This helps stop contaminants travelling further into the station. --- Green Zone – The Clean Zone The Green Zone is the cleanest area of the station — places like offices, kitchens, rest areas, and training rooms. No firefighting kit or operational equipment, regardless of its contamination state, should ever enter this zone. This area must remain completely free from fire contaminants to protect the health of everyone on station — firefighters, non-ops staff, and visitors alike. --- By respecting these zones — Red, Amber, and Green — we all play a part in breaking the contamination chain. Each step, each decision, and each boundary helps protect not just your health, but the health of your colleagues and your family. Control the zones. Control the risk. Stay clean… stay safe.
