No todas las Bomberos ganan lo mismo — ni de cerca

Wisconsin's firefighter market is anchored by Milwaukee Fire Department (~700 sworn firefighters, IAFF Local 215 ~700 members), Madison Fire Department (~400 sworn, IAFF Local 311), substantial suburban fire departments (Brookfield + Waukesha + Wauwatosa + West Allis + Greenfield + Oak Creek + Janesville + Kenosha + Racine + Sun Prairie), plus Green Bay Metro FD + Appleton FD + Eau Claire FD + La Crosse FD. The Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS) provides defined-benefit pension at substantially more generous terms for protective service employees (firefighters + police), and Wisconsin Act 10 of 2011 is a defining feature of modern WI public-sector employment.

Vale la pena saber: Wisconsin Act 10 of 2011 partially exempted protective service employees (firefighters + police) from the public-sector collective bargaining limitations that severely affected teachers + other public employees — and this Act 10 carve-out is a defining structural feature of modern WI public safety employment most national firefighter-career surveys understate. WI Act 10's protective service carve-out preserved meaningful collective bargaining rights for IAFF + FOP locals across base wages + working conditions + safety + staffing (though benefits + retirement bargaining was modified). The Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS, ~$130B AUM, ranked among most secure US public pensions at ~100% funded) provides defined-benefit protective service pension at 2.165% × years × FAS multiplier (general protective service formula, more generous than the 1.6% general formula) — supporting age 50 normal retirement after 25+ years for firefighter + police service. IAFF Local 215 Milwaukee + IAFF Local 311 Madison anchor the largest WI urban firefighter locals. WI is post-2015 RTW via Act 1, but the Act 10 protective service carve-out + WRS pension security continue to support competitive WI career firefighter comp at $78-148K range including OT premium. Approximately 70% of WI fire departments are volunteer + paid-on-call (typical of upper-Midwest rural geography). The 2025 No Tax on Overtime federal deduction applies to WI firefighter OT for tax years 2025-2028 — cap $12,500 single / $25,000 .
