Becoming an AFAC Member

Welcome to the Australasian Fire and Emergency Service Authorities Council (AFAC), Australasia’s leading industry body with members drawn from every state and territory in Australia, New Zealand and from around the Pacific.

Membership of AFAC comprises those organisations that have responsibility for delivering or supporting the provision of fire, land management, community safety and emergency services. With a workforce of over thirty thousand employees and over 200,000 volunteers, AFAC members operate in a risky, dynamic, complex and challenging environment.
