ISO-Compliant Fire Training Completion Rate
Description
Measures the percentage of sworn fire personnel who meet or exceed the Fiscal Year training hour requirements established by the Insurance Services Office (ISO). This measure supports the Strategic Plan by ensuring workforce readiness, operational effectiveness, and maintaining the City’s ISO Public Protection Classification, which directly impacts community safety and insurance costs for residents and businesses.
Measure Status Update
Dunedin Fire Rescue continues to make strong progress toward meeting ISO training benchmarks. Personnel are actively participating in structured company training, multi-company drills, and specialized evolutions aligned with operational needs. Current tracking indicates a high percentage of sworn personnel are on pace to meet or exceed annual training hour requirements. Continued emphasis is being placed on documentation accuracy and consistency to ensure full ISO credit.
Measure Next Steps
- Continue monthly monitoring of individual and company-level training hours to ensure compliance with ISO expectations
- Reinforce training documentation standards to ensure all activities are properly captured and credited
- Increase focus on multi-company and live fire training opportunities to maximize ISO scoring potential
- Identify any personnel falling behind training benchmarks and implement corrective training plans
- Evaluate opportunities to enhance training delivery through regional partnerships and shared training resources
