Ranks

MFB ranks are identified by insignia in the form of epaulettes worn on the shoulder of uniforms.

On the fire ground, epaulettes are worn on personal protective clothing; coloured helmets and markings assist in rank identification.

Personnel up to the rank of Senior Station Officer wear yellow coloured over trousers with yellow markings on their fire tunics.

Ranks from Commander and above wear white tunics over trousers.
