Researchers are working to understand how work schedules affect firefighters' health. A project is underway to examine the relationship between sleep and firefighter well-being. This effort is being led by a researcher and is funded by a federal agency.

Career and volunteer firefighters are being asked to participate in the project. They can complete an online survey, which is anonymous and takes around 30 to 45 minutes. Further details about the project are available from the organizers, who are seeking input from firefighters to better understand the issues they face.
