đźš’ The IAFF's TAIR Division recently partnered with Terrace Professional Firefighters Local 2685 to study how the department's reliance on off-duty fire fighters affects emergency response.

The results are clear: relying on off-duty to respond from home causes critical delays when seconds matter most.

Two cannot safely fight a structure fire alone. That’s why international standards call for at least four fire fighters on every engine company – and why the IAFF is fighting for across North America.

This is how our profession welcomes our sister home. In an area without wildland firefighters we made sure Emily received the honors she deserved. Even at 2:30 in the morning nearly every overpass over I-94 from Metro Airport to Metro Parkway was lined with firefighters, fire apparatus, police officers and residents to honor Firefighter Emily Barker lighting her path home. Rest easy Emily we will take the watch from here.
