Firefighters



This is one of the noblest professions on the earth. They are the real heroes who put their life at stake to combat fire and its devastating effects, thus saving valuable lives.



Firefighters work in a variety of different settings starting from urban environments, small towns and military bases to on-board ships and great forests; and lend a helping hand to people suffering from man-made or natural disasters. These professionals are also the first respondents at the scene of road accidents or other distress calls.



But unfortunately the pay packages of these professionals are not inclined to the hard work they put in for a noble cause. As per the PayScale website, the average annual salary for firefighters is roughly around 2.34 lakh, while the lower ten percent are earning approximately 1.79 lakh per annum.
