新西兰消防与应急部门（FENZ）因2008年消防车因刹车故障未能及时赶到奥塔拉一处住宅火灾，尽管消防员全副武装，但该消防车迟到七分钟，正受到关注。 Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) is under scrutiny after a 2008 fire truck failed to respond to a house fire in Otara due to a brake malfunction, arriving seven minutes late despite firefighters being fully suited. 这一事件与车队老化和保养不良有关,凸显了持续存在的系统性问题,包括人员配备不足、维修延误和后备车辆不足。 The incident, linked to an aging fleet and poor maintenance, highlights ongoing systemic issues including understaffing, delayed repairs, and inadequate backup vehicles. 新西兰职业消防员联盟指出,FENZZS拒绝参加有意义的谈判,包括将关键工作人员排除在集体协议之外,这加剧了安全风险。 The New Zealand Professional Firefighters Union says FENZ’s refusal to engage in meaningful negotiations, including excluding key staff from collective agreements, worsens safety risks. 联盟成员因不安全的条件、缺乏癌症保护、心理健康支持不足而举行抗议活动,并警告公众安全每天都受到危害。 Union members are staging protests over unsafe conditions, lack of cancer protections, and insufficient mental health support, warning that public safety is compromised daily.
