6/2/2014 Application Number: EMW-2011-FF-00724 engaged in the prevention, control, and extinguishing of fires; and/or responding to emergency situations in which life, property, or the environment is at risk. This individual must be trained in fire suppression, but may also be trained in emergency medical care, hazardous materials awareness, rescue techniques, and any other related duties provided by the fire department. Full-time Paid Firefighter Position Part-time Paid Firefighter Position Volunteer Firefighter Pos ition Full-time positions are those that are funded for at least 2,080 hours per year (i.e., 40 hours per week, 52 weeks per year.) The program office will also consider funding the sharing of a full-time position with sufficient justification. A job -share position is a full-time position that is occupied by more than one person. Positions funded via SAFER may be shared, but DHS limits the number of individuals to no more than four (4) per position. Part-time paid firefighters receive pay for being on duty at the fire station, whether or not they respond to any alarms. They may or may not receive benefits. Volunteer firefighters receive no financial compensation for their services other than life/health insurance, workers compensation insurance, and/or stipend per call. SAFER intends to improve or restore local fire departments' staffing and deployment capabilities so they may more effectively respond to emergencies. With the enhanced or restored staffing, a SAFER grantee's response time will be reduced sufficiently and an appropriate number of trained personnel will be assembled at the incident scene. The following questions are designed to help us understand the changes that will occur in departments receiving grants. Use the following definitions when completing the table below. Total # of Operational Career Personnel — the number of authorized and funded active, full-time uniformed/operational career positions employed by your department on the date indicated. (Note: only operational positions should be included.) # Operational Officers — Of the operational career positions indicated in the "Total" field above, how many of those serve in operational officer -level (both command and company) positions? # NFPA Support — Of those operational career positions indicated in the first field above (Total # of Operational Career Personnel), how many are assigned to field or response apparatus positions that directly support NFPA 1710 (Section 5.2.4.2 — Initial Full Alarm Assignment Capability) or NFPA 1720 (Section 4.3 — Staffing and Deployment) compliance? (Note: Officers should also be included in this number if they directly support NFPA 1710 or NFPA 1720) Note: The number of career positions in any of these fields should include positions which are job -shared.
