In this edition - You are likely to have seen or at least heard about the email from the ‘Organisational Development Branch’ advising QFES is conducting a ballot of all Firefighters and Station Officers about a consistent start and finish time to apply to all 10/14 stations.

In this edition - You will recall I advised you earlier this year of your 2023 wage rise.

This increase is a result of the State Wage Case, run by Queensland Unions in the Queensland Industrial Relations Commission.
