Looking for experienced and rookie fire fighter's. Hello Osprey New Applicant. Fire season approaches again, and we are now hiring and training to be ready for it. This notice will address both new hires and existing returning Osprey Crew. For ALL BC contract crews, remember Osprey has a history of great deployments, an established proven performance track record that is recognized by our client, the BC Wildfire Service. We have many tens of thousands of successful individual fire fighter deployment days. Fire Service companies are not all equal, and we count ourselves as the cream of the crop based on our long history of success. If you are going to reply to this email please do so from your personal email address, so that we can reply directly to you and not through an advertisement or group email. Training, our final session of this year, will take place by Zoom on May 28 with physical training on May 4 for fit test, SPC, Ladder, Comms, GPS, Pumps. The work pays well but is extremely physically demanding and applicants must be able to work hard, be in shape and get in better shape before fire season.The wages are very solid when deployed, which we will discuss in detail at the training. We pay every two weeks (or per deployment which max at two weeks / up to 14 straight days on the fire line). We pay Daily and also Weekly Overtimes to the base hourly rates. We pay hourly top ups for experience, and 5 additional ticket holders; Crew Lead, First Aid, Driver, Power Saw Operator, Danger Tree Assessor. All overtime is also applied to the top ups. We also pay standby wages when we are "called up to be ready to deploy" under our contract terms. These are crews that are contacted and put together on an official standby status, waiting for a call to go to work is not standby, but that will become clear at orientation. Most days when deployed to fires are 12 hour days, 8 regular hours and 4 hours (1.5 times rate) as Overtime hours, Weekly overtime also applies after 40 hours regular time (1.5 times regular rate) per week (per each 7 day periods).
