The Nordic Fire-fighter’s In-Service Training Days (NBS) is a work related society for full-time fire fighting staff.
NBS was founded in 1937 and has, with the exception of the years 1939-1945, been arranged annually by the boards of the trade unions in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Helsinki, Copenhagen and Oslo. In addition to this, Reykjavik and Bergen have hosted the event, starting in 1966 and 1993 respectively. NBS is very unique within the international trade union movement as a group of professionals gathering regularly across the borders during such a long period of time.
About NBS
The founders of NBS believe that the Nordic fire fighters have so much in common and are able to contribute to each other within their field of expertise to an extent that an annual gathering was warranted. This had to happen under simple, worthy and friendly forms, according to the founders. This attitude has remained throughout the years and have, with time, become more important due to the development of society, technology and the fast changing social interactions of today’s world at large.
