But the service has improved hugely, inspectors found
Greater Manchester’s fire service will ‘never be free of culture issues’, its Chief has admitted, but insists it is improving.
But now, the Chief Fire Officer has admitted problems will always be present in the 1,800-strong workforce, but insists that things will continue to move in the right direction. “We're never going to be a service that is free of issues but we are, and we will become, a service where perhaps the volume of issues that we've been dealing with the trajectory downwards,” he told the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
“It's human beings and employees. It’s their interactions that regulate the system, and people having the confidence to call it out, intervene and try and prevent things from escalating by dealing with things early on.”
