Regional IRB Operations
The Inshore Rescue Boat (IRB) program was initially established in the mid 1970s
as part of the Federal Student Work Experience Program (FSWEP) initiative. This
government sponsored program was a co-operative project struck between Human Resources
and Development Canada (formerly Employment & Immigration Canada) and various government
departments with a goal to provide employment experience and mentorship to post
secondary students. This initiative provided students with exposure to "real-life"
experience in various aspects of government operations while earning a wage to help
pay for tuition.
Today, the Canadian Coast Guard continues to hire and train candidates each summer,
through the FSWEP program, to become members of an IRB crew. Selected candidates
are trained in Search and Rescue operations by Canadian Coast Guard regional staff
and following successful completion of training, are assigned as crewmembers to
IRB stations. Normally, each station is staffed with two (2) IRB crews.
IRB crews are comprised of three (3) people:
(1) Coxswain in charge; and
(2) Crewmembers.
In some regions, Coxswains are experienced members of the CCG Fleet. In others,
the Coxswain is a returning student with one or more years experience as an IRB
Crewmember.
The Canadian Coast Guard operates IRB Stations in five (5) regions in Canada.
Newfoundland
& Labrador.
Maritimes
(Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, P.E.I.)
Québec
Central
Canada (Great Lakes Area)
Pacific
In 2005, the IRB Program consisted of twenty-four (24) strategically placed stations
across Canada. Each station was equipped with a six to seven meter Fast Rescue Craft
(FRC) capable of operating at speeds in excess of 24 knots.

Working on the water during the summer as part of an Inshore Rescue Boat (IRB)
crew can be a very challenging, but rewarding job. The job comes with serious responsibility:
Search and rescue (SAR) operations can occur at any time of the day or night, during
all types of weather and sea conditions
IRB crews are tasked to respond and provide assistance to mariners in distress or
need of assistance, by a Joint Rescue Coordination Centre (JRCC) or a Maritime Rescue
Sub-Centre (MRSC). Some of these types of incidents may include:
Vessel on fire;
Vessel aground;
Vessel disabled and broken down;
Vessel taking on water;
Vessel capsized;
Vessel lost in the fog;
Person overboard; and
Medical emergencies.
In addition to responding to distress calls, IRB crews also provide public education
on boating safety. Topics can include:
Personal Floatation Devices
Hypothermia
Equipment that Every Boat Needs
Proposed Changes to the Required Equipment
Personal Watercraft Use
Rules of the Road
Boating Restrictions and Regulations
Pleasure Craft Courtesy Checks (PCCC) - The Canadian Coast Guard offers Pleasure
Craft Courtesy Checks (PCCC's) as a service to the public. These examinations
are beneficial because they insure that boaters are aware of the safety equipment
that should be carried on board their vessel, as well as keep them abreast of any
changes.
To apply to the Canadian Coast Guard’s IRB Program, you must be attending either
University or College prior to and following the summer of desired employment. These
are the guidelines set out by the Federal Summer Student Employment Program. In
addition, the following qualifications are required:
Students who wish to apply as “crew” for the IRB Program MUST meet the following
criteria:
1. be a full-time post-secondary school student;
2. hold a valid Driver's License (automobile);
(No legal restriction on the use or operation of a motor vehicle).
3. hold a valid Standard First-Aid Certificate;
4. hold a valid CPR LEVEL C Course Certificate (eight hours);
5. hold a Pleasure Craft Operator Card; and
6. hold a VHF Restricted Radio Operator's Certificate (Maritime).
Note: Please note that candidates must be fluent in French to work in Quebec
region and fluent in English to work in all other regions.
Preference MAY be given to candidates who:
a. hold a Valid Bronze Cross in Swimming; and
b. have a certificate from a boating course covering such subjects as chart work,
coastal navigation, basic seamanship etc.
Note: Please note that candidates must be able to provide their certificate from
a boating course no later than the commencement of IRB training (where applicable).
To apply for re-employment as a Coxswain, you must have a minimum of one year
of previous IRB Crew experience.
Quebec Region: For re-employment as a Coxswain in Quebec, preference MAY be given
to candidates with two (2) years of IRB Crew experience in Quebec.
Training
In General, student IRB training begins shortly after the end of the preceding
school year. Training requirements vary between regions, but are generally provided
by regional Canadian Coast Guard staff over a one to two week period. Topics such
as boat handling and seamanship, local coastal navigation, search and rescue operations
(search techniques, communications etc) and more are covered. Upon completion of
the training period, crewmembers are then assigned to an IRB station (See note below)
Note: The Canadian Coast Guard reserves the right to post students to stations
as required, as IRB operational requirements can change from year to year.
Pay during training:
Information regarding pay and the provision of accommodations during training
will be provided by regional Canadian Coast Guard staff during the interview selection
process.
In 2005, students were paid in accordance with Treasure Board Guidelines:
Crewmember: $12.49/hour
Boat Coxswain: $16.36/hour
Note:
Québec Region: For IRB students working in Québec Region, pay
during the training period will be provided in the form of a “lump sum payment”
to cover expenses. For further details, please refer to
Regional IRB Operations –
Quebec on this web site.
Hours of Work:
Hours of work vary according to region, but generally consist of 12 hour days,
on a 7 or 14 days worked / 7 or 14 days off basis, depending on the region. As previously
mentioned, each station is normally staffed with two (2) IRB crews. While one crew
is working, the other crew is on days of rest.
Note: Information regarding hours of work, pay, training and accommodations, will
be provided by regional Canadian Coast Guard staff during the interview selection
process.
The deadline to apply for a position with the Canadian Coast Guard's IRB Program
is normally between early January to mid- February, depending on the region.

In general, IRB crews and stations operate in a similar way across the country.
However, regional operational variances between each region do exist. Factors such
as the type and volume of boating activity, geography and environmental conditions,
as well as the availability of Canadian Coast Guard Fleet personal, have an impact
on IRB resources and operational requirements.
