The aim of this paper is to increase knowledge on the subject of the circumstances of anxiety among firemen, while taking account of the quantitative criteria according to the time scale and qualitative factors associated with the locations of conducting duties. Material and methods: The research encompassed 35 people, including 27 men (aged: 30.8±5.0 years of age) and 8 women (aged: 26.5±2.0 years of age) who conduct fire services in the State Fire Services (SFS) in several locations in Poland. The STAI (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) method was applied, which is recommended for diagnosing predisposition for professions that require a low level of anxiety and increased levels of resistance to stress. The research was supplemented by survey questions relating to everyday life and health behaviour. Results : In cluster group no. 1 of an average seniority of 10.78 years, the level of anxiety amounted to 59.92 points, while attention to making nutrition choices was at the level of 2.5 points. In the second cluster group selected with a seniority in the fire services of 4.40 years, the level of anxiety amounted to 53.07 points, while attention to making nutrition choices was at the level of 1.53 points. Conclusion: Longer seniority in the fire services is not associated with a lower level of the situational level of anxiety felt. The effect of the combined impact of factors occurs in the form of interactions such as in the form of the fire services, as well as seniority with relation to the intensity of anxiety amongst firemen.
