At RTFC, communication is more than just a value, it’s a lifeline. Open, consistent, and two-way communication is essential, especially in dangerous situations where every second counts. Our firefighters put their lives in each other's hands every day, and that trust is built through clear communication and teamwork. It’s how we stay safe and ensure the safety of others. #RTFCValues #Communication #Teamwork #Trust #FirefighterLife #SafetyFirst

“Having a full-time dedicated industrial fire department provides our employees, contractors, and community a safer work environment,” said Paul Swetish, Chief of Refinery Terminal Fire Company (RTFC). "We can all say we have a safer work culture but the follow through is action. Our full-time dedicated fire brigade is just one way we take action.” https://bit.ly/4epvDMD
