H-3 - Resolution 2023-037 - Modifying Tiffin Fire Department Stipend Program for SAFER

If a call is received and they do not respond, then the member will not receive the coverage stipend subject to consideration for extenuating circumstances from the Program Manager and Grant Administrator. Members must sign up for a minimum of 12 hours of coverage to receive one-half of the total stipend per certification level. For example, if a Firefighter II signs up for a total of 12 hours of coverage, the Firefighter II would receive a total of $50.00 ($100 / 2 = $50). If the Firefighter II signs up for 24 hours of coverage, then the Firefighter II would receive a total stipend of $100.00. Additional rules and restrictions apply. See SAFER Program Policies. General Disclaimer All SAFER stipend programs are limited to the amount available per SAFER year. All SAFER stipends will be distributed monthly based on actual member performance for the previous month, beginning with June 2023 (paid in July 2023). SAFER program stipends are not guaranteed. Department policies and guidelines may be modified at any time with approval of the City Administrator.
