MEDIATION SERVICES FOR THE VOLUNTEER FIRE SERVICE
Mediation of conflicts within the fire service has many benefits:
- Eliminates pro-longed and lengthy legal proceeding
- Determinations made within 30 days
- Non-binding or binding
- Eliminates costly legal fees for both parties
- Eliminates bias and prejudices by turning to a neutral third party
- Avoids negative press
- Confidential
Conflicts within the fire-service are a major deterrent to recruitment, and the foremost reason for members leaving the fire service. When a situation needing attention brings two sides together for negotiation and compromise; politics often plays a role, either real or perceived. In a volunteer fire department, neighbors, old class-mates, and even family relationships are stressed. Any issue from conduct, violations of rules and regulations, to pending law-suits can be mediated first.
