Fire and Rescue NSW Commissioner’s Orders 2019/20

Version 1 – 9 October 2019 Page 15

PROCEDURES

Fire and Rescue NSW Operational Readiness Network

This Commissioner’s Order rescinds and replaces In Order 2008/22.

Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) has a network of crews and fire appliances across NSW,

which provide service delivery to the community. The delivery of Fire and Rescue services

operate under a risk framework within the Emergency Services Computer Aided Despatch

System (ESCAD) including policies, procedures and multi-agency agreements to ensure the

most appropriate resource is responded efficiently and effectively to emergency incidents.

Standard Operational Guideline 1 - Incident Management outlines the key principles in respect

of safety and the management and resourcing of emergency incidents.

The Major Incident Management Plan and Sub Plans, as well as Standard Operational

Guidelines, Safety and Operational Bulletins provide guidance on effectively and efficiently

managing the eight key capabilities identified as Fire and Rescue NSW’s service delivery

commitment to the communities of NSW.

The primary role for Fire and Rescue NSW is reducing risk in the community. FRNSW supports

this through responding to emergencies as well as undertaking other activities such as:

• Safety Visits

• Community Engagement

• Training / exercises

• Brigade Exercises

• Hazard reductions

• Station Forums

• Multi Agency Exercises

• Zone Based Activities

• Skills Maintenance & Acquisition

Given the emergency services network across NSW and applying a risk-based approach, it is

appropriate for FRNSW to actively engage in Prevention and Preparedness activities.

However, at times of greater risk, such as during or responding to major incidents and on days

of extreme fire danger, it is important that we have a greater surge capacity and capability

available and to ensure that adequate resources are available for response.

Duty, Zone and Area Commanders, in close consultation with the Response Coordinator, are

responsible for managing the availability and movement of appliances across the network,

including staffing of appliances.

Further, in cases of limited staff availability, the Area Commander, in consultation with Duty &

Zone Commanders, will also determine on a risk basis whether an appliance and crew are

required to form part of the FRNSW immediate operational response network. In doing so

consider factors such as, but not limited to:

• The impact and/or duration of the staff shortage(s);

• The time of day/night, such as school hours;

• Weather forecast conditions;

• Any current operational activities which have local risks or impact on response;

• The availability of staff and appliances across the overall network; and

• The necessity or otherwise of postponing activities, (for example Station Forums).

Fire and Rescue NSW Commissioner’s Orders 2019/20

Version 1 – 9 October 2019 Page 16

If, following the risk analysis it is deemed necessary to cover that particular area of the

network, then consider options such as, but not limited to:

• The move up of other appliances;

• The use of available on-shift personnel;

• The use of available retained or off duty permanent firefighters
