The second of the Movember-funded wellbeing survey opens today.
The NZPFU urges all members who participated in the March 2023 survey to participate in the March 2024 survey.
We refer Members to the 12th February 2024 notice where we notified members it was not in their interests to respond to the new Code of Conduct.
Members are advised that during a 5th alarm response in Auckland a serious near miss occurred while deploying lengths of 90mm Fireflex stainless banded hose from the hose layer. Lengths of the hose failed with the coupling coming off under pressure leaving the hose flailing about.
Our members serve their communities to protect and preserve life, property and the environment. NZPFU representatives are based on all career fire stations. There are also 19 Union Locals in the major metropolitan and principal centres where career firefighters are employed.
