At Work
Our ambition is to Make West Yorkshire Safer by providing an excellent Fire and Rescue Service working in partnership to reduce death, injury and economic loss and contribute to community well being.

One of our strategic priorities is to ensure the Authority’s statutory fire protection duties are discharged efficiently and effectively.
The economy has changed and continues to do so. Much of this change is driven by new information and communication technologies, a more mobile workforce and the consequent trend towards a global economy. These, and other influences, have an extremely wide range of effects relevant to fire safety. We must continue to seek new ways to help businesses through the economic downturn and demonstrate that good management of fire safety is a driver for competitiveness and not something that reduces it.
