Through both offices, building specifications and life safety codes are ensured in new construction. In addition to proper code enforcement, the fire department continues to utilize live fire training with sub standard buildings to assist in removing those that pose a public hazard. The fire prevention program has fast become the City of Jesup Fire Departments’ most active division. The department purchased the fire safety house in 1999 to enhance its safety education for school age children. The safety house along with the fire safety program is used throughout Wayne County and several surrounding counties. Annually,the fire safety educators  teach over forty seven hundred students  in fire awareness. In addition to fire safety education, the Jesup Fire Department is the host agency for The Georgia Safe Kids Organization in the southeast area.
