The Province of Alberta is seeking contractors for emergency wildfire suppression and pre‑suppression operations under non‑guaranteed contracts, meaning contractors will be hired on an as‑needed basis with no guarantee of work. Qualified contractors and individual positions are evaluated based on wildfire experience and training; all positions require insurance and many require completing a fitness test. For more information, contact your local forest area office: Calgary: 403.297.8800; Edson: 780.723.8506; Fort McMurray: 780.743.7125; Grande Prairie: 780.538.5560; High Level: 780.926.5400; Hinton: 780.865.8200; Lac La Biche: 780.623.5388; Peace River: 780.624.6190; Rocky Mountain House: 403.845.8266; Slave Lake: 780.849.7377; Whitecourt: 780.778.7153. Wildfire Management Branch Headquarters (Edmonton): 780.427.6807; wildfire.alberta.ca.

This is most relevant to contractors with documented wildfire experience and training who can provide required insurance and, where applicable, complete fitness testing. Key considerations are the non‑guaranteed, as‑needed nature of the contracts (no guaranteed hours) and that qualifications and position requirements are assessed locally—contact the listed forest area office for position-specific details.
