Large-scale emergencies are rare — and we hope they stay that way but when they do happen, being prepared ensures we protect our people and the ships we build.
The Big Picture: We’re building a vetted roster of shipbuilders with certified experience in emergency response to support incident command when every second counts.
Why It Matters: Our emergency teams lead the response, but large-scale events may need immediate support from trained shipbuilders already on-site.
- Swift, coordinated action is essential in fire, medical or environmental incidents
- Your training could make a difference
Who We Need: Shipbuilders with current certifications or verified military experience:
- Medical professionals (EMTs, nurses, paramedics)
- Fire/hazmat responders
- Military personnel with relevant training
What You’ll Do: Not a firefighter, but a force multiplier — you may:
-
Provide triage
-
Support communications
-
Assist with logistics
What to Know:
- This is a standby role activated only in rare emergencies and always under the direction of emergency leadership
- All certifications must be current and verifiable
- Military experience should be documented with a DD250 and relevant endorsements
