Our Corporate Priorities

Our Corporate Priorities guide our work, shaping the development of objectives and actions and ensuring compliance with the many statutory and moral obligations placed upon the service. You can read more about how our Corporate Priorities fit in to our Corporate Panning Framework by clicking through the Planning and Performance menu on the right.

Community
We exist to make our communities safe places to live, work and visit. We work closely with the communities we serve to ensure that the service we deliver is tailored to their expectations and is targeted towards areas of greatest need.

People
Our personnel are our greatest asset. We believe that by investing in their future, we can make our organisation stronger, more efficient and more effective. We work hard to maintain our reputation as a good employer and provide a workplace where everyone is treated with dignity, fairness and respect.

Protection
Our role is to protect the communities we serve. We deliver a service that works proactively to reduce the incidence of fire and other emergencies and one that responds with dedication and professionalism whenever and wherever the need occurs.

Partnership
Strong, productive partnerships are central to our service. By co-operating closely with our partner agencies, we are able to deliver an integrated approach to safety in the community and the most effective service possible. We know that by working together, we have much to offer and much to gain.

Environment
We have a duty to protect our environment. We are committed to taking positive steps to reduce the environmental impact on our business. We will strive to reduce our carbon footprint by increasing environmental awareness across all parts of our organisation and by doing all that we can to minimise and mitigate the effects our operations have on the planet.
