The NZPFU has cancelled today's strike which was to occur for 1 hour from 12 noon today.
Locals are asked to concentrate on organising the 10 hour full stoppage strike notified for 27 November 2026.
Friday’s strike action has been cancelled. Saturday’s strike will still proceed as planned: 2,000 NZPFU members will walk off the job at
midday on Election Day — marking the first-ever Election Day strike by firefighters in NZ history.
This follows our official notice of the first 10-hour strike in an unprecedented national escalation.
NZPFU members have sent a clear message to FENZ and the incoming Government – the NZPFU members are standing strong in rejecting the disgraceful offer made by FENZ and have voted to walk off the job for 10 hours at a time to get a fair and reasonable deal.
Members are advised it is not in your interests to participate in FENZ’s health monitoring survey.
Last week, without any heads up, FENZ sent out an email link to a survey.
FENZ CE Kerry Gregory’s resignation announcement this evening should be the catalyst for massive and sweeping change for FENZ.
The Northern Drivers’ Charitable Trust is now accepting scholarships of up to $3000 for CTU Union affiliated union members and their family members for 2027.
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.
