Beginning January 1, 2026, a newly updated mandatory overtime policy will go into effect. This was developed over the past year through a collaborative effort between SMFR and Local 2086. The policy gives employees more control over their placement on the mandatory list, simplifies trade and overtime procedures, and clearly defines par numbers across all ranks. We’ll cover the reasons behind the change, the expected impact, and what’s ahead. Guests include Battalion Chief of Administration Mike Burke along with Captain Pierce Jacoway and Engineer Pete Scully from Local 2086.
