historically been a predominantly male profession throughout the world. However, since the 1970s, women have made inroads in both professional and <a href="/wiki/Volunteer_fire_department" title="Volunteer fire department">volunteer fire departments</a> in multiple countries. In modern times, women have served in a variety of fire service roles including as <a href="/wiki/Fire_chief" title="Fire chief">fire chiefs</a>. Nonetheless, they comprise less than 20% of firefighters even in the countries where they are best represented. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Women_in_firefighting&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History">edit</a>]</div> Many ancient civilizations had a form of organized firefighting. One of the earliest recorded fire services was in Ancient Rome. The <a href="/wiki/Aboriginal_Australians" title="Aboriginal Australians">Aboriginal Australians</a> had been managing and responding to wildfires for thousands of years, with women being involved.<a href="#cite_note-abc-aboriginal-1">[1]</a> Firefighting became more organized from the 18th century onwards, led with the rise of insurance companies and then with the rise of government fire services in the 19th century. In 1818, <a href="/wiki/Molly_Williams" title="Molly Williams">Molly Williams</a> was recorded as being the first female firefighter in the United States. As a slave in <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, she joined a volunteer engine company.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> Young women in boarding houses in the United Kingdom were taught fire drills, including high ladder rescues. During <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, women served in the wartime fire services of the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand both in support and frontline roles. As a result of the <a href="/wiki/Second-wave_feminism" title="Second-wave feminism">second-wave feminism</a> movement and <a href="/wiki/Equal_employment_opportunity" title="Equal employment opportunity">equal employment opportunity</a> legislation, official obstacles to women were removed from the 1970s onwards. The first female firefighter in the United Kingdom (<a href="/wiki/Mary_Joy_Langdon" title="Mary Joy Langdon">Mary Joy Langdon</a>) was recruited in 1976,<a href="#cite_note-SE2006-3">[3]</a> while the first in New Zealand (Anne Barry) joined in 1981.<a href="#cite_note-nz-barry-4">[4]</a> Many fire departments required recruits to pass tough fitness tests, which became an unofficial barrier to women joining. This led to court cases in a number of countries. In 1979 communications centre worker Anne Barry applied to join the NZ Fire Service as a career firefighter but her application was rejected on the grounds of gender. In 1981 she won her two year battle with the Fire Service Commission and was allowed to apply to join the <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_Fire_Service" title="New Zealand Fire Service">New Zealand Fire Service</a> as a career fire fighter.<a href="#cite_note-nz-barry-4">[4]</a> In 1982, <a href="/wiki/Brenda_Berkman" title="Brenda Berkman">Brenda Berkman</a> won a lawsuit against the <a href="/wiki/New_York_City_Fire_Department" title="New York City Fire Department">New York City Fire Department</a> over its restrictive fitness test. She and 40 others then joined as its first female firefighters.

As such, firefighters were commonly called "firemen", an informal title still used by some civilians today. The title "firefighter" has become the universally accepted terminology in <a href="/wiki/National_Fire_Protection_Association" title="National Fire Protection Association">NFPA</a> training materials and is used by English speaking professionals and trained volunteers as both the basic rank and overall job title that is often paired with the addition of a firefighter's <a href="/wiki/Emergency_medical_technician" title="Emergency medical technician">EMT</a> certification level (e.g., "Firefighter-Paramedic Jane Doe").<a href="#cite_note-160">[160]</a><a href="#cite_note-161">[161]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Challenges">Challenges</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Women_in_firefighting&action=edit&section=28" title="Edit section: Challenges">edit</a>]</div> Since women have only begun to be widely hired or accepted as volunteer firefighters in the last 30–40 years, there have been many difficult adjustments for the fire service. In many places, the fire service is steeped in tradition and formalized, <a href="/wiki/Paramilitary" title="Paramilitary">paramilitary</a> relationships.<a href="#cite_note-Guardian2012-162">[162]</a> A 1998 article in <a href="/wiki/Fire_Engineering_(magazine)" title="Fire Engineering (magazine)">Fire Engineering</a> noted that firefighters tend to form tight-knit communities which value "strength, courage, and loyalty" but can be "resistant to change".<a href="#cite_note-163">[163]</a> Even if women are socially accepted members of the fire service, it is on the basis of gendered assumptions that they will bring more balanced decision making and nurturing qualities to a team of firefighters.<a href="#cite_note-:4-164">[164]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Health">Health</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Women_in_firefighting&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Health">edit</a>]</div> In 2017, a study of female firefighters' occupational stress in the U.S. found that 40% of the women had engaged in binge drinking in the previous month, and 16.5% screened positive for problem drinking. According to the study, "problem drinkers were more than 2.5 times as likely to have been diagnosed with a depressive disorder or to have symptoms of post-traumatic stress." Those with less than seven years of service were the most likely to report issues with drinking.<a href="#cite_note-165">[165]</a> In Canada, a lack of health coverage is often an issue for female firefighters in certain provinces. Although many cancers are covered as known occupational risks because of overexposure to fire, smoke, and toxic fumes, breast cancer is not yet covered nationwide.<a href="#cite_note-166">[166]</a><a href="#cite_note-167">[167]</a> Although women in the fire service are generally more healthy and fit than their male coworkers as well as women in the wider population, they experience higher rates of miscarriage and preterm births.<a href="#cite_note-:7-168">[168]</a> This may be linked to occupational hazards such as environmental toxins,<a href="#cite_note-169">[169]</a> heavy lifting, and irregular shift work.<a href="#cite_note-170">[170]</a> In 2012, the International Association of Firefighters in the U.S. recommended that all fire departments create policies on pregnancy and/or maternity leave,<a href="#cite_note-171">[171]</a> but in a study in 2018 nearly a quarter of female firefighters reported that their departments had no such policies.<a href="#cite_note-:7-168">[168]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Facilities_and_equipment">Facilities and equipment</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Women_in_firefighting&action=edit&section=30" title="Edit section: Facilities and equipment">edit</a>]</div> One major hurdle to entrance into firefighting for women was the lack of facilities. The immediate problem of sleeping quarters and bathing areas had to be solved before women could participate fully in firefighting as an occupation and as a culture. Communal showers and open bunk halls were designed for men only. Today, fire stations, as public entities, must either follow gender equity law or face judicial injunctions; thus, they are now designed to accommodate firefighters of both genders. However, some female firefighters still face issues related to their gender. A pan-Canadian study found that equipment, services and resources for female firefighters are often inadequate. Gear is often not made for women and offsite there is often no proper facilities for feminine hygiene needs.<a href="#cite_note-172">[172]</a><a href="#cite_note-173">[173]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Discrimination">Discrimination</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Women_in_firefighting&action=edit&section=31" title="Edit section: Discrimination">edit</a>]</div> Women were banned from working as firefighters in many countries at many times.

As a result of the <a href="/wiki/Second-wave_feminism" title="Second-wave feminism">second-wave feminism</a> movement and <a href="/wiki/Equal_employment_opportunity" title="Equal employment opportunity">equal employment opportunity</a> legislation, official obstacles to women were removed from the 1970s onwards. For example, in 1979 communications centre worker Anne Barry applied to join the <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_Fire_Service" title="New Zealand Fire Service">New Zealand Fire Service</a> as a career firefighter and her application was rejected on the grounds of gender, but in 1981 she won her two year battle with the Fire Service Commission and was allowed to apply to join the <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_Fire_Service" title="New Zealand Fire Service">New Zealand Fire Service</a> as a career firefighter.<a href="#cite_note-nz-barry-4">[4]</a> However, many fire departments required recruits to pass tough fitness tests, which became an unofficial barrier to women joining.

A similar lawsuit led to the <a href="/wiki/Supreme_Court_of_Canada" title="Supreme Court of Canada">Supreme Court of Canada</a> ruling in 1999 (in the case British Columbia (Public Service Employee Relations Commission) v.

Eighty-eight percent of fire service women responding had experienced some form of sexual harassment at some point in their fire service careers or volunteer time. Nearly 70% of the women in the survey said that they were experiencing ongoing harassment at the time of the study. Of the 339 women who indicated that they had complained about harassment, only a third (115 women) listed positive-only outcomes: investigating/taking care of the problem and disciplining the harasser. Twenty-six percent said that they were retaliated against for having reported the incident.<a href="#cite_note-Issues_Concerning_Women_&_Firefighting-178">[178]</a> Many Canadian female firefighters admit to experiencing some levels of systemic gendered violence such as sexual harassment and assault, which includes groping and being solicited for sexual services.<a href="#cite_note-179">[179]</a><a href="#cite_note-:2-180">[180]</a> Female firefighters who experience harassment have been found to be more hesitant to report it because they fear negative consequences such as exclusion and the exacerbation of the harassment.<a href="#cite_note-181">[181]</a><a href="#cite_note-:3-182">[182]</a> Many female firefighters have reported avoiding feminine apparel such as high heels, dresses, and makeup when around their male coworkers, for fear of being hypersexualized and becoming the target of sexual assault or harassment.<a href="#cite_note-:3-182">[182]</a> In 2016, a Canadian male firefighter was charged with two counts of sexual assault and one count of assault with a weapon in connection with his harassment of a female coworker.<a href="#cite_note-:2-180">[180]</a> An American nationwide study found that the majority of female firefighters that experience sexual harassment do not report it to their superiors, in many instances because the supervisor was involved in or already knew about the behavior.
