BERT has endeavored to provide the most comprehensive course deliverables as possible.  Government agencies such as OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency), CDC (Centers for Disease Control) and state & local agencies will have later or potentially conflicting directives.  The Safety Officer for my facility should be continually aware of any newer or conflicting information and update me as necessary on my organization’s position.
