Be an on-call firefighter!

We are always recruiting for on-call firefighters across the county. On-call firefighters don't stay on a station waiting for a call out, rather they provide us with hours they are able to be on-call for and will be paged if they're needed for an incident.

On-call firefighters are paid an retainer for the hours they provide, as well as payment for attending training and incidents.
