The types of missions are becoming more and more complex and diverse, with the heaviest police missions in summer and autumn. The rescue and rescue police tasks received by the fire rescue team cover more and more extensively, involving high altitude, water, underground, rapids, severe cold, high temperature, smoke and heat, electromagnetic, pollution and other harsh environments, the traditional fire fighting task faces more and more complex places, the danger in disposal is getting stronger and stronger, the difficulty is getting bigger and bigger, the average force invested in each police situation has increased from 9.7 people in the previous year to 10.4 people, and the average disposal time has also increased. Judging from the seasonal distribution of police tasks throughout the year, the fire rescue team dispatched 1.222 million police from May to October, accounting for 55.9% of the whole year, of which there were many natural disasters in summer and autumn (heavy rainfall, typhoons, mudslides, landslides, floods, etc.), dangerous chemical accidents and traffic accidents.

Provinces with large economies and populations have the most police situations and the highest frequency of rescues. In the whole year, the number of police tasks in 6 provinces reached more than 100,000, namely Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, Zhejiang and Henan, all of which are large economic provinces and large population provinces. From the perspective of per capita police situation, the four municipalities with the largest number of police cases per 10,000 people per 10,000 population are Tianjin 39.0 cases/10,000 people, Shanghai 29.8 cases/10,000 people, Beijing 22.9 cases/10,000 people, and Chongqing 22.1 cases/10,000 people, far exceeding other regions (the national average is 13.9 cases/10,000 people).

Electrical is still the primary cause of fire, and fires in production operations are prone to casualties. From the perspective of the direct causes of fires, 28.4% are caused by electricity, while more than one-third of the fires are caused by electrical causes, and most of them are electrical line failures, accounting for nearly 80% of the total number of electrical fires.
