On May 1st, 2004 the Fire-Rescue Department transitioned to a pay-per-shift department hiring fulltime fire and rescue personnel from surrounding communities to operate in a part time scheduling arrangement. The pay-per-shift program was implemented to address concerns regarding employee recruitment and hiring, and to improve general response time of emergency service personnel. After the transition to a pay-per-shift program, the Northfield Fire-Rescue Department now has the capabilities to provide full emergency services coverage on a 24, 365 basis to all residents within the community and surrounding areas.
