DID YOU KNOW?

A Firefighters “workday” is very different from a traditional 8-hour shift.

Firefighters on a 24/48 schedule work 24 continuous hours at a time and average 56 hours per week. Totaling 2,912 hours each year at a minimum.
That’s 832 more hours annually than the standard 40-hour workweek.

Providing emergency response 24/7 requires firefighters to be staffed and prepared every hour of every day to serve a great Lubbock community.
