Here are a few: How does your department compare with others whose workloads are about 80 to 85 percent EMS and 5 to 10 percent fire? What differences can a workload and operation analysis make on how you pay for those fire services? Do you really need that many firefighters and that much equipment? How do you determine the staffing and deployment of your fire services staff?

In this webinar, Tom Wieczorek from the Center for Public Safety Management returns with brand-new information that will help you address your toughest fire department staffing issues.

You will discuss:

• Real workloads and how to know if staff is allocated correctly
• How to determine the number of firefighters and amount of equipment that is really necessary
• Low firefighter utilization and how to deal with it
• Goal-setting, performance management, and strategies for continuous improvement
