The best solution for all your non-response positions is your retired firefighters.
Community Risk Reduction
No one knows community risk reduction better
Nothing prepares someone to be highly effective at community risk reduction than a 20+ year career in the fire service. Your retirees are currently working a part time job somewhere. Why not let them come back in the fold and supercharge your community risk reduction efforts. Gaps staffers from your retiree pool can fill your staffing problems while letting certified response personnel get back on a rig.
No one knows fire & life safety better than a 20+ experienced retiree.
Your retirees are working a part time job somewhere right now.
Put that experience and training back into helping your department meet the mission.
Fire Training
Your Training Division Sets Your Departments Culture
Fill support positions in your training division such as logistics, inventory, program development and more with those retired super stars of your department. Every department has those members that when they retired, they are greatly missed. They brought so much to the culture of the department and helping shape new members. Bring those super stars back and let them help you get your culture back on track.
Utilize the experience of your retired department leaders to help define your culture.
Create a mentor/mentee program using retired leaders to help shape the next generation.
Get those retired all stars back on the team, helping to shape the culture of your department.
Fire Marshall's Office
Why is All That Training and Experience Being Wasted?
It seems a shame that a retired member of the fire marshals office, who had 20+ years experience in national , state and local codes is now working part time delivering storage pods. Especially since they really miss working with your team. Why not bring them back as a Gaps staffer and let them put all that certification, knowledge, and experience back to work for your department.
It takes so long to get an inspector up to speed. Short-cut that process with retired inspectors.
Bring back those retired inspector super stars to ride along with new inspectors.
Shift response certified personnel back to the apparatus.
Logistics, Administration, Accreditation & Special Projects
There is just so much a retiree can do
From department supply logistics, purchasing, administration, accreditation, special projects, and more. You could probably list a significant number of positions that could be filled by a retiree right now. You also know which retiree would be a great fit for the job. With the current staffing shortages, it just makes sense to return certified response personnel back to the rig and fill all your support positions with professional, experienced, and trained retirees.
Let your retiree super stars handle the accreditation process.
Have a special project that you need a super star to run?
Let retiree superstars handle all your logistics requirements.
