Membership Benefits

The following provides a summary of the specific benefits available to members of the Association. If you require any further information then please contact our head office and ask to be put in touch with your local or regional official.

Local and National Representation

Members benefit from individual representation locally by serving FRS middle managers and experienced National Officers who are all retired FRS middle managers. No longer do middle managers have to rely on representation from staff with a different FRS perspective who do not understand managers' issues. The Association occupies a seat on the employees side of the Middle Managers Negotiating Body of the National Joint Council for Local Authority Fire and Rescue Services, which negotiates pay and conditions of service for FRS uniformed middle managers.

High Quality Legal Representation

Members have access to excellent legal representation available through a firm of solicitors with a breadth of experience dealing with employment related issues.

Optional Group Insurance Scheme

The Fire Officers' Association offers acces to an optional group insurance scheme which provides wide-ranging cover including family travel, accident/injury, life cover, emergency dental treatment, motor breakdown recovery, identity theft protection, family legal expenses, mobile phone cover and GP consultation. Scheme membership is free for the first 3 months.
