Hybrid working complicates the rota, because wardens have to be present on the days they are rostered. Attendance data makes it possible to check coverage in advance rather than discovering a gap during a drill.
Refresher training is usually annual and should be tracked alongside the rota. A warden whose certificate has lapsed does not count towards coverage.
