NPWS and FSA dont employ casual firies here in the South East. If they need help they use CFS or get crews from further away.

Im not aware of any pockets of land owned by SA Water that would require fire cover in the South East.

FSA used to employ casuals but some bright spark higher up decided they had enough staff to cover it and didnt require the casuals.  Just another Government department trying to save dough.

Cant say it has affected them though...well not from what i have seen on the fireground anyway.

Also to add that some forest companies down here like TimberCorp,G&R,Tabeel Trading and so on dont hire casual summer crew as they get contractors or people within their own company to provide fire cover for logging operations

However other companies like ITC,Victorian Plantations,StateWide Forest Services do employ summer casuals you just got to ask at the right time of year if they need people  :-)
