The Life Safety Initiatives targeted a reduction in line-of-duty deaths by 50 percent over how many years?

• A. 50 percent over 10 years
• B. 25 percent over 5 years
• C. 75 percent over 3 years
• D. 60 percent over 15 years

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is a long-term safety goal. The Life Safety Initiatives set a target to cut line-of-duty deaths by 50 percent within ten years. This ten-year horizon was chosen to drive sustained improvements in safety culture, training, and operating practices across fire departments. The other options don’t match the established target, which is a 50% reduction over ten years.
