Firefighters' union 'Vote of no confidence' in bosses
FBU says the service has not addressed concerns about shortage of appliances and overtime
The firefighter's union has passed a unanimous vote of no confidence in bosses at the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
They say they've continuously raised concerns about the availability of fire appliances and relying on overtime to have the crew for them.
The FBU Scottish Regional Committee move singled out fire chief Alasdair Hay and his senior leadership team.
The union claims the service has had many opportunities to resolve the issues since the formation of the single service in 2013 but with no satisfactory improvements.
The SFRS has yet to comment.
Last month, it emerged that Scotland's firefighters were being offered a pay increase of up to 20% if they agreed to take on new responsibilities tackling terrorism and providing emergency medical care.
As part of the deal between 200 and 300 jobs could be cut from the service.
