The IAFF Welcomes New Ohio Local

June 12 • 2020

Oxford, OH Local 5272 is one of the newest affiliates to join the IAFF.

Over the last five years, the Oxford Fire Department has been transitioning some of its part-time positions to full-time positions. As the emergency service needs of the City of Oxford grows, additional full-time positions are expected to be added.

“Our primary reason for organizing was to ensure we have a seat at the table as decisions are being made about fire department protocols and resources,” says Local 5272 President Jeremy Smith. “We are also hoping to establish a strong labor-management relationship with our city administration.

Joining President Smith on the Local 5272 Executive Board are Vice President Sarah Hundall and Secretary-Treasurer Thom Radomski-Bomba.
