About On-Call Employment with ICF

Given the seasonal or project-specific nature of our disaster & emergency management work, ICF often hires professionals as “On-Call” employees.

On-Call employees may work concurrent projects outside of their ICF assignment (as long as their outside work does not create a conflict of interest with the work they do for ICF).
