First-aid and CPR certifications are required of government-employed sawyers by OSHA. Again, under the VIP and VIF agreements, A.T. volunteers working on the Trail are considered government employees for the purposes of medical and tort claims. First-aid and CPR certifications must be current for sawyer certification to be valid.
