The Municipality of Sainte-Barbe signed an unprecedented agreement with its municipal fire department on May 4. This three-year agreement establishes an orderly relationship between the municipality and its 30 firefighters and ensures their well-being.
The agreement sets firm parameters around compensation, vacations, on-call time, training, education, clothing and equipment, psychological support, and professional ethics.
Mayor Louise Lebrun says she is “very proud of this agreement signed with the Fire Department and its 30 firefighters who are dedicated to the safety of the residents of the Municipality of Sainte-Barbe in addition to lending a hand to the surrounding municipalities.”
