National Volunteer Fire Council Commends Employer for Supporting Volunteers

Retrieved on:

金曜日, 8月 25, 2023

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Once upon a time, employers used to let volunteer firefighters leave work to answer an emergency call. This was especially beneficial in small-town and rural communities, where the majority of firefighters are volunteers. It ensured enough responders would show up during weekday emergencies when the volunteers were at their "day jobs."

Key Points:

The perk, which falls under John Deere's Power for Good program, lets workers who are volunteer firefighters leave work to respond to calls.
That means employees who are not volunteer firefighters who donate their time to another group, can direct those earnings to a volunteer fire department.
While not part of the volunteer program, Deere funded a full-length documentary movie that explores the life of volunteer firefighters around the country.
Make Me A Firefighter is a national volunteer firefighter and EMS recruitment campaign launched in 2015 by the NVFC to help departments reach new members.
