1. Discuss three factors that are influencing labor demand.
â–  One factor that will influence labor demand is the
mayor's promise to the city to increase the fight against
wildfires by opening recruitment for new firefighters to
provide more coverage in the fire areas.
â–  Another factor is the new directive limiting the
overtime hours that current firefighters can work.
Due to the new order, 25 extra firefighters will be
needed to prevent overtime and meet demand.

retirements currently occurring within the department.
