Red tape blamed for rapid SES member decline

Red tape and government bureaucracy has been blamed for slashing the number of State Emergency Service volunteers to the lowest levels in recent history. Queensland s SES has just 5200 active volunteers stationed across the state, 1000 fewer than five years ago. The number of personnel has been in a steady decline since 2015-16, hitting a low of 5000 in the past financial year before slightly rebounding. Several SES members say government red tape is partly to blame for the dwindling recruits, but acknowledge COVID-19 had affected numbers. One Brisbane member said the organisation also failed to recognise prior learning, meaning a qualified arborist could not operate a chainsaw until they pass SES training .
