In Lue of the class I am attending and the attempt to restructure and build good Public Relations and education as a Local and not as a Department. I will write and release policy on this subject in the coming days which will be a brief email. The Main points of which are as follows.
Social Media for the Association is for the improvement and growth of the Local and in no way represents the Department.
No Video will be posted without the written consent of the executive board.
Passwords and usernames for ALL Social Media accounts are held and maintained by the Executive board and are considered “Need to know information”
Media shall in no way reflect, represent nor indorse on duty personal unless the consent from actually Fire Department leadership has given written permission and a review has been executed by the board. This includes but is not limited to.
Training Videos shot on or off duty that pertain to Department operations.
On duty personal at any rank in any capacity
Videos that have images of fire apparatus or fire station
The New accounts are generic and do not have any personal identification informations, The accounts are as follows.
