Abstract: This study aimed to analyze the occupational health and safety of firefighters in the province of Cavite using descriptive research design. Data were collected from two sources: survey questionnaire and personal interview from the participants. The researchers used stratified sampling technique in selecting the participants. Through the results of the study, the risks were identified with the aid of risk ranking matrix. Most of the risks for both male and female that resulted as high level of risk came from the infrastructure risk. The researchers provided recommended control measures to minimize or eliminate the risks of health and safety hazards encountered by firefighters in Cavite.
