You asked for

Can you please provide me with the percentage of on call availability for firefighters so far in 2024 including any stations that have had additional shifts/overtime/ backed up by WDS staff. if this information is unavailable the previous month would suffice.

Our Response

Answer: - The overall on-call section availability for the time period 01/01/2024 to 10/05/2024 is 86.5%, which includes those periods where there is only alternate crewing (3 appliance crew) available, which can be mobilised to any incident but possibly not primary crew. These periods are infrequent.
