Kazan firefighters complained about holey overalls and burns

"In the Kazan garrison, the FPS does not issue firefighter uniforms and supplies: T-shirts, shoes, leggings, carbines, belts", - inkazan.ru quotes the author of the appeal. The firefighter complained that the burns became "systematic" because of this.

According to the fireman, the employees drew the attention of the management, but it suggested that they "patch up" the overalls themselves. The salary of the FPS employees, according to the author of the appeal, is 25 thousand rubles and they are not able to purchase the necessary devices with their own money. "The most striking negative side of this problem is due to the fact that, in general, work slows down during fire extinguishing work", - the firefighter concluded.

The press service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in Tatarstan said that the author of the message did not give his name, and this is regrettable, since "the specific problems of a particular employee of the Ministry of Emergency Situations have always been the subject of special attention of the head of any level." The Ministry of Emergency Situations also noted that since the tragic fire in the Admiral shopping center in 2015, Kazan firefighters have not received burns during the fires, and their salary is at least 32 thousand rubles, there are no problems with overalls, it is constantly being updated. and many firefighters have already accumulated several sets of "combat clothing".

In January of this year 2021, the Kazan garrison received 110 new sets of firefighting suits. In total, according to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, this year firefighters of Tatarstan should receive 510 new high-quality sets of overalls, 1,020 pairs of gloves and other hand protection, 595 pairs of protective footwear.

Recently, employees of the 40th fire department of GKU PK "UGPS of Perm Territory" turned to the head of the region, Dmitry Makhonin. In their letter, workers were asked to answer two questions: why their salaries did not increase by the amount that officials declared, and why they do not even reach the average value.
