Harness the potential of a thriving labor-management relationship.

In today's environment, there's no room for ongoing conflict between organized labor and management. Such situations impact service delivery and morale and can impede fire department successes.

"The great thing about the LMI program is that both the IAFF and the IAFC hold this program up as the model of how to be successful as a department. When it comes down to it, the goals for both sides are very compatible with the overall mission of fire departments."
