Firefighters frequently work shifts that last up to 24 hours, and their workweeks are longer than the average desk worker\u2019s. With so much time dedicated to the job, where does a firefighter lay their weary head when they need a break? Do they only sleep at home, or will they snooze at the fire station?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firefighters will sleep<\/strong> at the station, in their sleeping quarters, if time allows. When a firefighter is on shift, they\u2019re not necessarily working the whole time, so there might be time to sleep<\/a>. At any point though, a firefighter could be woken up because their crew needs them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahead, we\u2019ll talk further about when firefighters sleep at the station, how long they sleep, and what their work schedule looks like. There\u2019s lots of great information to come, so make sure you keep reading! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
