Disaster Service
Worker Training

By law, all government employees are designated Disaster
Service Workers. Effective disaster preparedness requires
periodic trainings and refresher updates. As recent events
have shown, government organizations cannot be too prepared
to respond to emerging threats and incidents. This updated
Disaster Service Worker training and introduction to NIMS is
meant to better prepare employees to respond to emergencies
of all types.
