Every working day, hundreds of businesses and organisations across Aotearoa support our brigades by allowing their employees to respond to incidents. We’re committed to recognising the support of our self-employed volunteers and volunteers’ employers.
When we call, New Zealand businesses answer. As a self-employed volunteer, or an employer of our volunteers, you’re an essential part of our support crew.
Your decision to allow your employee to respond to an incident while at work is significant, and we recognise that it may not be possible to release your employee to every incident.
We’ve started a ‘new tradition’ with a mark and an annual nationwide advertising campaign that will help New Zealanders recognise businesses and organisations’ that employ Fire and Emergency volunteers as part of our support crew.

Employers of our volunteers are part of the crew. A few have shared their experiences with supporting our volunteers.
Do you know of a self-employed Fire and Emergency volunteer or proud employer of volunteers in your community? We're keen to share their story.
