Event Security Steward (Entry Level) vs Firefighter (Mid-Level)
How do Event Security Steward (Entry Level) and Firefighter (Mid-Level) compare on AI displacement risk? Event Security Steward (Entry Level) scores 52.3/100 (GREEN (Transforming)) while Firefighter (Mid-Level) scores 67.8/100 (GREEN (Stable)). Here's the full breakdown.
Event Security Steward (Entry Level): The role is defined by physical presence in large venues — managing crowd flow, conducting bag searches, guiding evacuations. AI crowd-density sensors and CCTV analytics are augmenting 30% of task time (capacity monitoring, surveillance), but 45% remains completely untouched and the core function requires a human body on the ground. Safe for 10+ years; daily work is shifting toward AI-assisted operations.
Firefighter (Mid-Level): Core firefighting demands embodied physical presence in extreme, unpredictable environments that no AI or robot can operate in. AI augments reporting and situational awareness but cannot enter a burning building, rescue a victim, or treat a patient. Safe for 20+ years.

What Do These Scores Mean?
Each role is assessed using the AI Job Resistance Index (AIJRI), a composite score from 0 to 100 measuring how resistant a role is to AI displacement. The score is built from five dimensions: Task Resistance (how many core tasks can AI automate), Evidence Calibration (real-world adoption data), Barriers (regulatory, physical, and trust barriers protecting the role), Protective Principles (human-centric factors like empathy and judgement), and AI Growth Correlation (whether AI growth helps or hurts the role).
Roles scoring above 60 land in the Green Zone (AI-resistant), 40–60 in the Yellow Zone (needs adaptation), and below 40 in the Red Zone (high displacement risk). For full individual assessments, see the Event Security Steward (Entry Level) and Firefighter (Mid-Level) role pages.
