1. The site
Agent Pompier (agentpompier.com) is an independent information site about fire safety jobs in Quebec. It is not linked to the ministère de la Sécurité publique, the École nationale des pompiers du Québec (Quebec's firefighter training school), a fire department, a municipality, a union or a school. It is not a placement agency.
2. Information, not advice
The site gives no legal advice and describes no firefighting technique. In an emergency, call 911.
Laws, collective agreements and fire department directives always prevail over our summaries.
Each article bears its date and cites its official sources. Rates, programs and rules may have changed since. Check the source before making a decision.
3. Shift stories
By sending a story, you agree that it may be published, in whole or in part, rewritten as needed, without payment.
Do not name a person or a fire department, and give no detail that could identify someone or a case.
We are not required to publish a story.
4. Site content
The texts on the site are ours. You may quote a short excerpt with a link to the page. Reproducing a whole article requires our consent.
5. Liability
The site is provided as is. We correct the errors reported to us. We are not responsible for a decision made from an article without checking the official source.
