Retained Firefighter
The Position Limerick City and County Council invites applications from suitably qualified persons, who wish to be considered for inclusion on a panel from which temporary and permanent vacancies for Retained Fire-Fighter may be filled throughout the lifetime of the panel. The common image of the Fire & Rescue Service is naturally one of fire-fighters turning out in fire appliances and fighting fires. While some of the work involves attendance at fires, the role of the Fire & Rescue Service is much wider and the needs of the community much more varied. Limerick Fire & Rescue Service responds to all emergency calls from the public for assistance, primarily to protect life and save injury to individuals, but also to prevent and restrict damage to property. Many emergency calls, however, are not to fires, but to incidents where members of the community are trapped in vehicles following road traffic accidents, trapped in machinery, or trapped in less life threatening circumstances, as well as being called to chemical spillages and toxic emissions, river rescues, etc. To deliver this service to the public, Limerick Fire & Rescue Service has to develop operational plans, including the provision of adequate water supplies for fire fighting; ensure that effective arrangements exist to receive emergency ‘999’ calls and mobilise resources; implement effective operational communication systems throughout the Fire & Rescue Service; enforce, promote and encourage fire safety throughout Limerick by programmes of inspection and publicity; conduct effective training to develop the skills and abilities of personnel; and provide, maintain and repair its premises, vehicles, plant and equipment. The Fire-Fighter’s working life and training is geared to responding safely and effectively to emergency calls, regardless of weather conditions or the time of day or night. Every time Fire-Fighters are called to the scene of an emergency they must be prepared to deploy each and every skill in which they have been trained. When they arrive at an incident as part of a team under the command of an Officer, they may individually have to absorb a great deal of information rapidly and apply the skills they have learned in conditions which will often be extremely dangerous and confusing. Despite all the training given in preparation for such incidents, however, Fire-Fighters will from time to time be faced with new situations where they may individually be required to provide the answers using previous experiences as a guide. Fire-Fighters wearing breathing apparatus, feeling their way through a smoke filled building with toxic hazards, in order to effect a rescue, cannot ask for instructions. In order to function effectively in emergencies every fire-fighter’s pre-eminent characteristics must be those of: 4. Driving Licence Candidates must hold a full driving licence, Category “B”, free from endorsement and provide their own motor vehicle for use in carrying out their duties and their motor insurance policy must indemnify the Council.

Residence/Employment: Applicants who may be considered for membership are confined to those who reside in the area of the fire brigade and whose ordinary employment does not take them away from the area of the fire brigade. The Retained Fire Service is an emergency service and requires an immediate turnout – therefore the maximum acceptable time of travel from home and place of employment will be 7 minutes of the Newcastle West, Cappamore, Foynes, Abbeyfeale, Kilmallock & Rathkeale Fire Stations. 3. Annual Leave The successful candidate will have 28 days annual leave. 4. Salary: Salary scale: €11,019 - €14,317 per annum, inclusive of LSIs.

The earnings of a retained fire fighter are variable depending on the level of activity undertaken by each individual. Earnings are made up of an annual retainer, payments for attending training, payments for attending callouts and payments for other duties. Whilst callout numbers cannot be guaranteed, the estimated earnings for an individual in each retained fire station is expected to be between €30,000 and €40,000 per annum 5. Availability Availability means that a fire fighter is required to both live and work within the maximum time of travel of the fire station at all times while on call for emergencies. A minimum level of staffing is required to be available in all Limerick Retained Fire Stations at all times.
