Driver and Non-Driver Category
To address the wide gap between the driver to firetruck ratio, the BFP is prioritizing FO1 applicants who are holders of unexpired Professional Driver’s License (PDL) restriction code 2 and 3 with or without National Certificate II or III issued by TESDA provided that the applicants have complied with the minimum qualification standards stipulated under existing circulars, laws and rules. These types of applicants will be categorized as “Drivers”.
Applicants who do not have unexpired Professional Driver’s License (PDL) restriction code 2 and 3 shall fall under the category of “Non-Driver”.
Architect and Engineer Category
Applicants who are licensed engineers, specifically Civil, Electrical, Mechanical engineers and licensed architects shall fall under this category and will be prioritized. This is to strengthen the BFP’s pool of personnel who will be designated as Plan Evaluators and other engineering-related functions.
