Brief Description
Ohio Firefighter Mile Exam
Full Description
The Firefighter Mile is an entry-level firefighter physical ability test designed to assess readiness for the physical demands of firefighting. In particular, the Firefighter Mile is designed to demonstrate that the candidate has sufficient stamina, strength, and agility to accomplish the critical job tasks. Research has shown that the most common cause of firefighter injury, and even death, is overexertion and stress. Ensuring the physical fitness of firefighters helps reduce their chance of injury and death, which in turn provides for the safety of victims and other firefighters alike.
The Firefighter Mile consists of ten events arranged in a specific order. Three of the ten events are walking events, interspersed between the other events. Each event must be performed in a technically correct fashion or a warning or disqualification will be issued.
To pass the test, candidates must properly complete all tasks in the correct order. There is not an overall time limit, though there is a time limit for each event. One point is awarded for completing each event within a specified time. Candidates must receive at least eight out of 10 points to pass. Candidates may pass an event but earn no points if they finish within a longer maximum time frame.
