Welcome to the Scotland RFU website

The RFU represents personnel working the Retained Duty System (RDS) in Scotland and across the UK.

The union has a no-strike constitution, no political affiliation and no conflicts of interest, we are simply here to ensure the best terms and conditions for our members that compliments the efficient and cost effective fire cover provided to our local communities.

We believe in the 'power of argument' rather than the 'argument of power' and to empower our membership to make decisions on their own future within the RDS in Scotland.

If you have the same values as we do and want to have a say on your future in the Fire & Rescue Service why not join?

Don't leave it too late!
