Today the Firehouse Lawyer talks about the statutes providing for Regional Fire Authorities, and some of the basic concepts behind RFAs; we also talk about a case in which an employer's rule requiring firefighters to observe “laws and ordinances” reached to off-duty drug abuse by employees. | 06-07 | 2006 | 7 | v06n07jul2006.pdf |
