Abstract: With the significant expansion of fire service functions and tasks, new occupational hazard factors continue to emerge, leading to a further increase in occupational health risks for fire and rescue personnel. The construction of a systematic standard system for occupational health and safety of fire and rescue personnel serves as the foundation and support for conducting occupational health management and protection work. This paper systematically sorts out the development status of occupational health and safety standards for fire and rescue personnel in different countries, regions and international standardization organizations, summarizes the management characteristics and system structures of these standards across various countries, and conducts a comparative analysis of the domestic and foreign standard frameworks. The advantages and deficiencies of China's current standard construction are concluded, aiming to provide references for further constructing and improving a standard system for occupational health and safety of fire and rescue personnel that integrates Chinese characteristics with advanced international concepts in the future.

Key words: fire and rescue personnel, occupational health and safety, standard system, health management
