The Auckland Local met with Management on 17 October for a further presentation of the new 400 series Fire Safety modules.
The Local believes that this is new work. It is intended for the whole country and will have further modules added in the future and as such, will impact on all firefighters.
The Auckland Local recommends that members neither deliver, nor partake in any new training relating to this Fire Safety subject until advised otherwise.
Please read to the end.
Members should be aware that District Manager Mackereth has unilaterally made the decision to remove the Hazmat Command Appliance from immediate response to confirmed structure fire incidents for incidents in Auckland City Central Fire District.
Members may be aware that the Local has raised a dispute around the way FENZ’s wants to transition Papakura Station to a Senior Station Officer Station. This proposal would directly impact 10 personnel and indirectly impact over 120.
