Because of its importance for residents and businesses, the Seattle Fire Code is updated by the Seattle Fire Department in cooperation with a volunteer advisory board that represents the interests of the public, organized labor, and local business, industry, and technical trades. We are currently seeking to fill the Labor Representative board position.
The labor representative is selected by the M.L. King County Labor Council, appointed by the Mayor of the City of Seattle, and confirmed by the Seattle City Council. Board members play a crucial role in establishing the fire code for Seattle. The Seattle Fire Code helps prevent fires and assure the safety of people who live, work and visit in Seattle.
To apply, please send your resume and a cover letter indicating why you would like to join the Board to office@mlkclc.org by March 30, 2014. We encourage people with multicultural backgrounds or experience serving diverse populations to apply.
