The 2015 VFBV Volunteer Welfare and Efficiency Survey is now open and all CFA volunteers are invited to take part.
The volunteer-run survey takes 10 to 15 minutes to complete. It includes 33 questions on issues chosen by volunteers as most important to them, and you can complete it online or request a paper copy by post. All individual answers are kept confidential.
The survey is in its fourth year and results are compared year to year to show trends in how volunteers feel on each of the issues. It is a cooperative process, allowing VFBV to provide reliable facts and figures to support the Association’s representation of all CFA volunteers. The results are studied by VFBV and the CFA Board, and the Emergency Management Commissioner has applauded it as an excellent tool for all who work to understand and support the needs of volunteers.
