LEGAL REGULATION OD FIREFIGHTING IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE

S ciljem učinkovitog organiziranja i upravljanja vatrogasnim sustavima, pravna regulativa ima veliko značenje. Ona definira ovlasti, odgovornosti i procedure vatrogasnih službi. Analiziranje pravne regulative vatrogastva u komparativnoj perspektivi omogućuje uvid u raznolikost pristupa koji se tiču vatrogastva te usko povezane civilne zaštite. Ovaj rad prikazuje vatrogastvo kroz komparaciju između Republike Hrvatske, Republike Slovenije i Federacije Bosne i Hercegovine. Svaka zemlja izdvaja svoje snage u vatrogasnoj zaštiti. Usporedbom ustrojstva vatrogasnih službi, njihova financiranja, obrazovanja i osposobljavanja, te suradnjom s međunarodnim organizacijama, možemo otkriti zajedničke ciljeve, te razumijevanjem razlika unaprijediti naš sustav kako bi se osigurala optimalna vatrogasna zaštita u zajednici u kojoj živimo.With the goal of efficient organization and management of firefighting systems, legal regulations are of great importance.
