UFBA Representative - Working Safely in Water Reference Group

Issue date:

The Membership Advisory Panel (MAP) is seeking expressions of interest from members to represent UFBA on the Fire and Emergency Working Safely in and around Water Reference Group.

A report issued in 2020 has identified working in and around water as a critical risk.  The report also noted “FENZ involvement in water-related rescues has been increasing but the risk management practice is inconsistent across the organisation”.

The purpose of the Reference Group is to bring together stakeholders from within key business units, FENZ, and unions and associations that have an interest or involvement in the Working Safely in Water Project.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please fill out the below registration of interest form by COB Wednesday 23 November 2022 and return to MAP administrator, Jane Davie - jane@ufba.org.nz
