• How long ago did you complete Chief Warden training?
• Do you recall the roles and responsibilities of a Chief Warden?
• Have you changed worksites or have there been significant changes to the worksite?
• Have there been any changes in regulations that you should be aware of regarding the Chief Warden role?
