What must staff present prior to working their first shift?

Staff members are required to provide original certifications or a Find A Member printout prior to working their first shift to ensure that all qualifications are valid and current. This is critical in environments that prioritize safety, such as aquatic settings, as it guarantees that employees are properly certified to perform their duties, which may include lifeguarding, swimming instruction, or other safety-sensitive roles.

Presenting original certifications or an official printout allows the management to verify that the staff member has met the necessary training standards set forth by relevant agencies or organizations. This practice promotes confidence in the staff's ability to respond to emergencies effectively and maintains the overall safety of the aquatic environment. The requirement also helps in maintaining compliance with regulatory standards required by aquatics organizations, thereby protecting both the staff and the patrons they serve.
