Staffing

independent verification of adequate staffing levels

Municipal public safety agencies need appropriate staffing levels to provide services to their community. The McGrath Consulting Group can help identify and solve questions like:

  • Is the existing staffing program deployed in such a way as to maximize protection?
  • Could the fire department function with fewer personnel?
  • Would staffing change if the staffing model emphasized EMS versus fire?
  • Is there a need for additional staff in the future?
  • How do you determine adequate staffing?

McGrath gathers historical data and then compares it to national averages and averages of similar municipalities nearby. We look for compliance with FLSA, IRCA, etc. We help define incentives for new recruits, a succession plan for the future, and provide recommendations for consistent staffing throughout the year.
