A company officer repeatedly makes inappropriate postings to social media. Another gets into a physical altercation with a firefighter at the station. Yet another actively supports hazing of new firefighters. And another is arrested after getting into an argument with a police officer after a traffic stop. All of these situations demand a response. But what is a fire chief to do? Sometimes the decision is straightforward. All fire departments and the jurisdictions they report to have policies and regulations in place that define specific incidents that will lead to termination from the organization. These "point of no return" offenses may vary among organizations, but policies that are clearly defined need to be as clearly and consistently enforced.
