It is with great sadness that we notify members of the passing of NZPFU Life Member and highly respected retired SSO Ian Richards.
The NZPFU NCOM has decided to cancel this morning's strike that was scheduled for one hour from 7.30 am today.
Many of you will have seen that Parliament is moving to hold a Select Committee inquiry into the state of Fire and Emergency’s fleet.
While this is an important development, it hasn't happened by chance.
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.
