Sawyer & Crew Authorization Matrix

A certification tracker answers “is Dave current?”, which is the easy question and rarely the one that goes wrong. What goes wrong is the composition of a crew on a particular Saturday: an apprentice cutting with nobody more qualified on site, or somebody sawing alone because the second person left early. Two rules recur across land-managing agencies and this workbook applies whichever versions you enter — an apprentice works under supervision, and nobody saws alone. The Work Days tab tests both against the people you actually assigned and reports NOT AUTHORISED for the day.

• Crew composition tested per work day, not per person
• Apprentice-with-no-supervisor and working-alone flagged separately
• Certification, first aid and CPR currency in one status
