DFES

We support volunteers who provide a variety of operational, admin and functional roles.

DFES employ more than 1200 career firefighters who are highly trained to play a crucial role during emergency and rescue situations.

DFES employ more than 300 support staff who work behind the scenes to support career and volunteer responders in their vital work.

We are predominantly a volunteer-based organisation that provides emergency assistance and support to the people of Western Australia, we rely on the compassion, commitment and community knowledge of dedicated volunteers.

These volunteers work with communities before, during and after an emergency, providing the support and assistance needed to help them prevent, prepare, respond and recover from emergencies.
