On-Call (RDS)Firefighter Recruits- Hailsham Community Fire Station

4 months ago

Hailsham, United Kingdom East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service Full time

Hailsham, your local fire station is currently looking for ordinary people that can combine their day job with being on-call and provide cover for Fire and Rescue situations and emergencies. We are looking for those that can offer weekend 24 hour and/or weekday daytime cover.

On-Call Firefighters carry alerters when on duty and MUST be at the fire station, ready to turn out within 5 minutes of the alerter sounding, travelling at normal road speeds, typically from home, friends, relatives or their place of work.

The minimum hours required to become an On-Call Firefighter, is 40 hours per week (hpw) or an average of 40 hpw over any given period. If you work a shift pattern or varied hours in your primary employment this can usually be accommodated. Whilst the hours are fairly flexible depending on the station’s needs, you would need to be available to respond for a minimum of 40 hpw. This doesn’t mean that you are working for 40 hpw, you just need to be available should we need you.

The number of hours that you are able to provide will be reflected in your retaining rate (part of your salary). We have three unit statues- Half (40-79 hpw), Three-Quarters (80-119 hpw) and Whole Unit (120 hpw plus). Please see the information below and the attached document for further details about pay.

You are also required to attend a drill night once a week. This usually lasts between 2 3 hours and is held on Monday evenings at 1900 at Hailsham fire station. You would train with the team and learn to maintain any equipment. These hours would form part of your minimum requirement of 40 hpw.

During the application process you will be asked to detail the hours of availability you can provide, these hours will form part of your contractual hours at the recruitment stage.

It's a huge commitment, but an immensely rewarding way to serve the community, keep the public safe and earn an extra income.

Every walk of life

An on-call firefighter is someone who responds to a range of fire and rescue service jobs; these range from emergency calls, working at open days, carrying out work with their local communities and acting as an ambassador for the fire service.

On-call firefighters come from every walk of life, including homemakers, shopkeepers, builders, farmers, office workers and directors of companies, together with people who are not currently employed.

Over 90% of On-call firefighters in East Sussex do their firefighting work alongside their day job.

Full training is provided on an ongoing basis, therefore previous experience is not needed.

Requirements

An on-call firefighter could be called out two or three times a week, for a few hours at a time. The on-call hours are based around people’s availability and other commitments. To be an on-call firefighter, you must :

  • Be over 17.5 years of age as we are unable to employee anyone under the age of 18.
  • Have a strong desire to support the local community.
  • Be enthusiastic about working as part of a team.
  • Have a reasonable level of personal fitness.
  • You will be required to be clean shaven for Health & Safety reasons, to ensure your Breathing Apparatus has a complete seal.

An integral part of the county’s fire cover

The on-call duty system is one of three Duty Systems (alongside Shift and Day Crewed) that combine to provide operational fire cover across the County of East Sussex.

All firefighters in East Sussex are trained to respond to the same incidents and on-call Firefighters are not a secondary or backup service.

They are an integral part of the county’s fire cover and enable us to crew more fire appliances in some of the more rural and remote areas of the county.

How much will I earn?

On-call Firefighters are paid an annual retaining fee of up to £2,520+, plus an hourly rate of up to £11.51 for any work undertaken for the Service, including responding to incidents and training. Time spent on-call but not working is not paid at an hourly rte.

Annual earnings depend largely on how much cover can be offered and how often on-call firefighters get called out.

The average earned by on-call firefighters in East Sussex is between £5,000 and £7,000*.

+correct at 01 July 2021. *gross average, ESFRS, 2016.

Interested?

For more information about the role of an On-Call Firefighter and the application process please visit our website, or pop down to your local station on a drill night.

Ongoing Commitment

You will be contracted to be on call during the hours that you have agreed to provide cover and will therefore need to remain within 5 minutes of the Fire Station during those times, although there will be some flexibility for ad-hoc changes to be agreed with Station Management.

Training

The initial training will comprise of two induction weekends, a two week Core Skills Course (Monday to Friday) and an RTC weekend. Once you have successfully completed these elements you will be able to ride a fire appliance, though in a limited capacity.

Once you have completed the initial training you will become a Firefighter in Development and will be placed on the Firefighter (On-call) Development Programme, which is accredited through Skills for Justice. On completion of the Development Programme you will be deemed as a competent firefighter. We would anticipate that this process would take approximately 2 years, but completion times with vary according to the individual.

There will be further training within 12 months of completing the Core Skills Course as follows:

  • Safe Working at Height Course- 2 days spaced 6 weeks apart
  • Water Basic course- 2 days
  • Breathing Apparatus (BA) Readiness Course- 1 day
  • Initial BA Wearers Course- Two weeks (Monday to Friday)
  • 2 ½ hour Drill nights on your station each week
  • 4 hours per month theoretical training


There will be regular fitness tests on station during drill nights to ensure your fitness levels do not drop between attendance on the Core Skills Course and attendance on the BA Course.
