The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:\n•Professional registration -- Current registration as a professional engineer by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.\n\n•Written Test-- Evidence of having succesfully passed the Engineer-in-Training (EIT) examination, or the written test required for professional registration, which is administered by the Boards of Engineering Examiners in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.\n\nApplicants who have passed the EIT examination and have completed all the requirements for either (a) a bachelor's degree in engineering technology (BET) from an accredited college of university that included 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences, or (b) a BET from a program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) may be rated eligible for certain engineering positions at GS-5. Eligibility is limited to positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of the engineering technology program. Applicants for positions that involve highly technical research, development, or similar functions requiring an advanced level of competence in basic science must meet the basic requirements in paragraph A.\n\nBecause of the diversity in kind and quality of BET programs, graduates of other BET programs are required to complete at least 1 year of additional education or highly technical work experience of such nature as to provide reasonable assurance of the possession of the knowledge, skills, and abilities required for professional engineering competence. The adequacy of this background must be demonstrated by passing the EIT examination.\n•Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and in engineering that included the courses specified in the basic requirements.

[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Definition of Professional Engineering Experience: The professional engineering experience required for grades GS-7 and above is defined as nonroutine engineering work that required and was characterized by (1) professional knowledge of engineering; (2) professional ability to apply such knowledge to engineering problems; and (3) positive and continuing development of professional knowledge and ability.\n\nProfessional knowledge of engineering is defined as the comprehensive, indepth knowledge of mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences applicable to a specialty field of engineering that characterizes a full 4-year professional engineering curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree, or the equivalent.\n\nProfessional ability to apply engineering knowledge is defined as the ability to (a) apply fundamental and diversified professional engineering concepts, theories, and practices to achieve engineering objectives with versatility, judgment, and perception; (b) adapt and apply methods and techniques of related scientific disciplines; and (c) organize, analyze, interpret, and evaluate scientific data in the solution of engineering problems.\n\nProfessional work in engineering, like that in other professions, is marked by continuing personal effort to keep abreast of the advancing and changing discipline. Continuing education in engineering and related fields is an important element of full professional competence as an engineer that should be considered in evaluating the qualifications of applicants for professional engineering positions.\n\nIn some situations, experience may be creditable even if it is not clearly professional engineering work. In such cases, the experience must have been preceded by prior responsible professional engineering experience and must contribute directly and significantly to the applicant's engineering competence. For example, an engineer might be assigned to a management-type position in preparation for assumption of higher-level responsibilities in engineering project or program management."]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Graduate Education:\n1.Individuals can be converted noncompetitively to a GS-9 position if they complete all the requirements of a Federal graduate-level student-trainee program, including completion of a master's degree in engineering and completion of 640 hours of work experience, 320 hours of which was at GS-7.\n2.Regardless of the field of undergraduate study, completion of the requirements for a master's or higher degree in engineering is fully qualifying for the grade indicated, provided the applicant's total background, i.e., education and any experience, demonstrates evidence of knowledge, skills, and abilities that are substantially equivalent to those acquired through the successful completion of the courses specified in paragraph A.\n3.With a bachelor's degree in engineering, graduate education in a related field is acceptable in lieu of graduate study in engineering for appropriate types of positions. For example, a B.S. in engineering plus a master's degree in business administration would be qualifying for Industrial Engineer, GS-9, but not for GS-9 laboratory positions in research and development. The key consideration in determining if such graduate education should be credited is whether or not the education provided the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to perform the work of the position being filled."]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Special Competence in Particular Areas of Engineering: Many engineering positions demand specific competence in a particular function or area. For such positions, agencies may use selective factors to identify those applicants whose records show evidence of the required capabilities. Such selective factors can be used for positions at all grade levels covered by this standard."]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Engineering Registration: Registration as a professional engineer is an appropriate selective factor for appointment to certain, typically high-level, engineering positions. The key consideration is that registration must be essential for acceptable performance of the work of the position to be filled. Accordingly, it is an appropriate requirement for positions with duties and responsibilities that satisfy one of the following criteria:\n•Responsibility for final approval of designs of major structures and facilities involving public safety where such compliance with State laws meets an essential need of the engineering organization to provide objective evidence to agency management and the public that the work is performed by engineers of proven competence.\n•Responsibility for engineering determinations concerning contract awards or other major aspects of design and construction work to be performed by engineers in the private sector, where registration is essential to have their full confidence and respect to achieve cooperation on critical engineering issues.\n\nWhen an engineering position has duties and responsibilities that would support a requirement for registration and a requirement is established, the position description should clearly document the basis for the requirement. It would be inappropriate to require that applicants be registered for positions with less responsibility than that indicated above, for positions that involve responsibilities and functions such as research and development, or for the sole purpose of improving the \"image\" of engineers in the Federal service. For those positions where registration is an appropriate requirement, such positions have been characteristically filled by registered professional engineers. If a currently filled position is newly identified as requiring a professional engineer, the requirement for registration should be waived for the duration of the employee's incumbency."]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  The Engineer-in-Training Test: The Engineer-in-Training (EIT) test is the first part of the professional registration examination for engineers in the various States. The EIT test is a test of engineering fundamentals generally taken by engineering school seniors or recent graduates. Those who pass are certified as Engineer-in-Training. The second part of the registration examination, covering practice in a branch of engineering, is taken after a specified period of experience required for registration as a professional engineer.  The EIT test is used under this standard to determine whether competitors without a degree in engineering or other qualifying education have a knowledge and understanding of mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences required to perform professional engineering work in a specialty field of engineering. This test is not to be considered as being in lieu of the requirement of at least 4 years of experience and/or education that might be regarded as providing such knowledge.  The EIT test is developed and administered by the State Board of Engineering Examiners in each State or comparable jurisdiction. The test is not administered by the U. S. Office of Personnel Management. Persons who desire to take the Engineer-in-Training test should direct their inquiries to the Secretaries of the appropriate State Boards."]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  College Teaching: College-level teaching of engineering may be considered as professional experience in engineering. In accepting and evaluating teaching experience, all specific qualification requirements pertaining to the evaluation of professional experience such as grade level, responsibility, scope, specialization, and knowledge required are also applicable to the evaluation of teaching experience. Teaching experience that is accompanied by a significant amount of research, direction of research, investigative, or similar work may be credited at full value in meeting a specific requirement for research, investigative, or similar experience.\n"]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Guide for the Evaluation of Engineering Curricula: The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (formerly the Engineers' Council for Professional Development) accredits specific engineering and engineering technology curricula; it does not accredit institutions. Thus, an accredited college may have (1) ABET-accredited professional engineering curricula; (2) professional engineering curricula that are not ABET-accredited; and (3) 4-year curricula in engineering technology that may or may not be ABET-accredited.  The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology publishes two bulletins: \"Accredited Curricula Leading to First Degrees in Engineering\" and \"Accredited Curricula Leading to First Degrees in Engineering Technology.\" Those wishing to obtain copies of these bulletins should contact the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, 345 East 47th Street, New York, N.Y. 10017. A summary of ABET-accredited engineering programs also appears periodically in the Journal of Engineering Education.\n"]
[null,"[ENGINEERING 0800]  Some engineering curricula are acceptable as meeting the basic requirements even though such curricula are not specifically accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. As a general rule, any professional engineering curriculum in an engineering school that has one or more of its curricula accredited by ABET may be accepted. It should be noted, however, that some universities have curricula identified as engineering curricula outside the engineering school, e.g., in the school of architecture or forestry. Such curricula need to be reviewed to see if they comply with the requirements of paragraph A.(2) of the basic requirements."]

The number and similarity of guidelines requires the employee to use judgment in locating and selecting the proper procedural and technical instructions for application to specific security assignments. Adaptation of, or deviations from, guidelines are limited to matters of style and format for describing physical and other conditions that affect implementation of security protection systems or costs involved in achieving a required level of security protection. The employee determines which of several established alternative procedures to use in estimating costs for installing security equipment and develops recommendations about which procedures can best satisfy the security objectives in each specific assignment.

Where guidelines for performing the work are scarce or of limited use, the employee develops guides to be followed by security specialists at the same and lower levels in the organization, including facilities and programs in various geographical regions. Typically, departmental guidelines available to the employee at this level are purposely left open to some local interpretation in order to allow accommodation to variations in local and remote environmental conditions that affect the nature of security systems designed to satisfy overall policy direction. Due to the lack of specificity, the guidelines are often insufficient to accomplish specific objectives. The employee must deviate from traditional methods and develop new methods, criteria, or proposed new policies.","3-4","450",1]
[null,"At this level, the employee is a recognized technical authority on the development and interpretation of security guidelines, policies, legislation, and regulations covering the security operations of one or more substantive national security programs (physical, industrial, personnel, information, etc.) and the organizations which administer them. Guidelines are nonspecific and stated in terms of broad national or departmental policies and goals, often in obscure legal and technical terminology which necessitates extensive interpretation to define the extent and intent of coverage. At this level, employees must use initiative, judgment, and originality in researching and interpreting existing national policies and legislation, in determining when new or revised legislation is needed, and in researching and preparing recommendations for the content of such legislation. Employees, as recognized technical authorities in one or more security specializations, develop regulations and security policies.

Assignments usually involve various sequential steps such as gathering information about room and building configurations, reviewing the adequacy of personnel investigation reports, preparing straight-forward information about document inventory and marking procedures, or other tasks which have been screened to eliminate those aspects of the work that are difficult to identify. Typically, there is some choice involved, such as the form in which information is organized or presented, or the selection of a guide appropriate to the assignment. Actions to be taken are based on clearly applicable documentation requirements and well-established procedures.","4-2","75",1]

Assignments characteristic of this level include: developing alternate security plans for a facility describing options in levels of protection and the costs involved for a Federal or private sector facility where the minimum protection requirement is well defined and accepted techniques are appropriate; adjudicating security clearance requests involving mixtures of such things as derogatory information, applicants or employees with hard to get skills, and management willingness to accept a nominal security risk; defining information storage requirements involving mixes of classified information requiring separate controls for access; or developing security plans involving separate, although similar, protective systems for communications and ADP facilities requiring separate security considerations within an established physical and information security protection system. Employees compile, analyze, and summarize information relating to the designated security requirements; develop plans for approaches that may be taken; define the level of risk involved for each plan; develop the costs for implementing each of several options; and recommend a course of action to meet assignment objectives. The work requires consideration of program plans, applicable policies, regulations and procedures, and alternative methods of implementing and monitoring security requirements. Employees identify and analyze relationships among organizational needs and objectives, costs, requirements of security guides, and related information in reports such as mission statements, levels of guard or police protection available, personnel skill requirements, and facility plans. Recommendations concerning the implementation of specific security systems and alternatives are based on factual information such as funding available, minimum regulatory requirements, delegated authorities to local managers to accept different levels of risk, and others that define the range of acceptable security decisions, programs, or systems related to the assignment.","4-3","150",1]
[null,"Employees perform assignments consisting of a variety of security duties involving many different and unrelated processes and methods relating to well-established areas of security planning and administration. Typically, such assignments concern several broad security program areas or, in a specialty area, require analysis and testing of a variety of established techniques and methods to evaluate alternatives and arrive at decisions, conclusions, or recommendations. Programs and projects may be funded by, or under the cognizance of, different organizations with differing security requirements or variations in ability to fund system implementation. The implementation of established security policies, practices, procedures, and techniques may have to be varied for a number of locations or situations which differ in kind and level of security, complexity, and local conditions or circumstances requiring adjustment or modification in established approaches. Implementation of the results of analysis may have to be coordinated with other organizations and security systems to assure compatibility with existing systems and demands on available resources. In deciding what is to be done, the employee typically assesses situations complicated by conflicting or insufficient data, evidence, or testimony which must be analyzed to determine the applicability of established methods, the need to digress from normal methods and techniques, the need to waive security and investigative standards, or whether specific kinds of waivers can be justified. Employees make many decisions involving the interpretation of considerable data; application of established security methods, equipment, techniques, and objectives to a variety of situations with variations in the level of security required; and ability to meet or exceed minimal acceptable levels.

At this level, the employee makes recommendations for changes in basic policy issuances and for implementing instructions covering established security techniques, practices, and methods based on personal analysis of very general policy directives and objectives. Decisions regarding what needs to be done are complicated by the number and nature of existing security programs or other regulatory guidance or circumstances, overlapping requirements, distinct local, environmental, or other considerations that have an impact on the ability to apply established methods. Many other factors may require extensive analysis and coordination to implement security plans and programs, such as conflicting requirements or objectives that may be imposed by other agencies. The employee must consider probable areas of future change in system designs, equipment developments, or comparable aspects of projects in order to prepare for later changes. Usually, there are conflicting requirements, the problems are poorly defined or require projections based on variable information or technological development, or some degree of change must be anticipated in mission requirements, related security systems, or funding requirements. The work involves originating new security techniques, establishing criteria, or developing new information and approaches to problem solutions.

Such work often involves overlapping, conflicting, or difficult to resolve security objectives and requirements. Work at this level may also include problem-solving efforts as a member on interagency committees or in national security organizations involved in reviewing, analyzing, developing, and issuing national policy directives and drafting legislation affecting security policies and programs throughout the Government and private sectors. Decisions and recommendations made by the employee require extensive consideration and analysis of very broadly defined, or undefined, issues and problems, often exploratory in nature, in areas where useful precedents do not exist and establishment of new concepts and approaches is required. Difficulty is also encountered in identifying and recommending alternate ways to resolve conflicting objectives which result from important national programs (e.g., Freedom of Information Act) that may overlap or conflict with equally important national security priorities.

Assignments are further complicated by: the need to deal with subjective concepts such as value judgments; the quality and quantity of actions are measurable primarily in predictive terms; and findings and conclusions are highly subjective and not readily susceptible to verification through replication of study methods or reevaluation of results.\nOptions, recommendations, and conclusions developed by the employee take into account and give appropriate weight to uncertainties about the data and other variables which affect long-range program performance. For example, the employee may need to consider and assess the relative advantages and disadvantages of centralizing or decentralizing work operations in organizations with several echelons of geographically separated components. In some instances, work is complicated by the need to develop data about workload and program accomplishments which is currently unavailable. Current measurements of program effectiveness may be ambiguous and susceptible to widely varying interpretations.

In many cases, the study assignments are of major importance to each of several departments and agencies, and because legislation may be conflicting or unclear, there may be disagreements about which department or agency has primary responsibility for significant aspects of the function studied. Studies frequently involve extensive problems of coordination in fact-finding and in reviewing and testing recommendations in interested agencies or with outside groups.\nRecommendations resulting from study assignments involve highly significant programs or policy matters and may have an impact on several departments or agencies. Analytical studies often lead to recommendations for the realignment of functional responsibilities, the expansion or contraction of key governmental functions or other equally significant changes in the future direction of programs. Thus, the analyst's findings and recommendations may result in substantial redirection of Federal efforts or policy related to major national issues.

[null,"MANUAL SECTION","TITLE"]
[null,"One of the most difficult documents to generate for a federal position is the Position Description that describes the employee’s job duties.  Part of the challenge is that line managers must capture the essence of the duties, tasks, knowledge, skills, abilities, key factors, and other job-related requirements in order for Human Resources (HR) personnel to classify the position.\n\nCapturing the essential requirements of a position are labor-intensive and a time-consuming task for line managers who have not been formally trained nor have prior experience in how to produce Federal Government Position Descriptions.  The average manager takes over three hours for each initial draft PD developed.  Additionally, if PD’s are not periodically refreshed, the actual duties and tasks performed by an employee become misaligned to the PD duties and tasks; resulting in difficulties processing vacancy announcements or other HR-related actions.\n\nThe Push-Button PD tool is designed for line managers and Human Resource (HR) liaisons to capture the essential portions of a Position Description (PD) into a draft to facilitate the line manager’s entry into the organization’s Position Description classification process.  The goal is to reduce the initial draft PD development time to an hour or less.\n\nThe tool has been pre-loaded with data from the Fall 2012 Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC) Cyberskills Task Force Report, associated Tiger Teams, the Cybersecurity Technical Review Board (CTRB), the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Framework Initiative, as well as other DHS-related sources of cyberskills information.","Overview"]
[null,"• Cuts down the time line-managers take to generate a draft PD.  The tool generates an initial rough draft PD for the line manager to take to HR, with accompanying point calculations and job analysis worksheets\n• Four Occupational series templates are currently pre-loaded: 2210, 0132, 1801, 1811\n• Pre-loaded with four Task and KSA CyberSkill and PD Language sources: OPM, HSAC, NICE Framework, and NIST SP 800-16\n• Generates SUPERVISORY and LEAD prefixes automatically based upon task selection and % of time performed\n• Generates Occupational Series, PM, and ITPM parentheticals automatically based upon task selection and % of time performed\n• Automatically assigns HSAC and NICE codes based upon Job Title and Occupational Series and places the information directly into the Position Description\n• Produces supplemental HR forms to facilitate the HR classification process, such as the Job Analysis worksheets and FES calculations\n• May be emailed or posted to a website.  Fully self-contained, stand-alone within a single Excel file without Privacy information\n• Can adapt and load specific PD language templates in a short amount of time to help accommodate Component-specific requirements\n• Able to support multiple Factor Language templates (within an Occupational Series) or Occupational Series\n• Fully Government-developed and owned (GOTS) and currently under legal review to patent or trademark under DHS","Key Features"]
[null,"The program is embedded as Macros within a fully self-contained Excel spreadsheet.  Each program is digitally signed and its structure is locked to help resist tampering by unauthorized individuals.  Before the program can be utilized, it is necessary to 1) save the program to a folder or desktop, 2) remove the digital signature (to permit user modification of the spreadsheet), and 3) activate Macros (to run the program itself) using Microsoft Excel 2010 or later.\n\nIt is possible to verify the digital signature by clicking on the View Signatures button.\n\nTo remove the digital signature from the file, select the Edit Anyway button just under the Menu Bar, near the top left of the spreadsheet.\n\nPressing the Edit Anyway button will generate a pop-up dialog box that will remove the workbook digital signature.\n\nAfter selecting the Yes button, a confirmation dialog box will notify the user that the digital signature has been removed.\n\nIt is also necessary to enable macros so the program is able to run.  Just beneath the Edit Anyway Button is the Enable Content button.  Both must be activated for the program to run.\n\nNote that these steps are only required if the program does not begin upon opening the spreadsheet.\n\nIf the Document Inspector is utilized to verify the document.  There is *no* invisible content (ex. Custom XML data, hidden worksheets, hidden rows and columns, or hidden headers and footers present).\n\nFor all other issues, please contact CMSI@hq.dhs.gov for additional support.","Running the Program"]
[null,"When the program first opens, a welcome message is presented.\n\nThis message will appear each time the user opens the spreadsheet.  To permanently disable this welcome message, select the PERMANENTLY REMOVE THIS POP-UP button.","Welcome Disclaimer"]
[null,"The tool organizes information via various buttons throughout the interface.  The tool has two basic types of selection boxes; the Single-Choice Selection Box and the Multi-Choice Selection Box.\n\nThe Single-Choice Selection Box allows the user to select one choice from the data presented.  The Single-Choice Selection Box has circles that mark the possible selection choices.  The choices may be navigated either using the mouse; or by using the ENTER key, and the UP/DOWN ARROW keys and using the SPACEBAR to select / deselect the entry.  The Save button will save the user’s selection, and the Cancel button will discard it.\n\nThe multi-choice selection box is nearly identical to the single-choice selection box.  The two main differences are that (a) the user may select more than one data selection, and (b) the selection is made in squares instead of circles.\n\nIf the user cannot read the entire text, the user can click on the right hand side of the selection box and scroll up and down as necessary.","Interacting with the Data"]
[null,"It is important to remember that the program stores all data within the Excel worksheet.  This means that the user may save the worksheet and all user selections will be saved and retained the next time the worksheet is reopened.","Saving Data"]
[null,"It is possible to modify most information within the underlying worksheet, however, care should be taken to modify the correct data.\n\nData Details\n\nLanguage Tabs\n\nLanguage tabs contain the language elements common to all Occupational Series.  Language tabs have the format \"topic-Lang\".  The topics include sections such as Organization, Series, Grade, Major Duties, Introduction, Eligibility, Education, Security Clearance, Conditions of Employment, and other topics that pay appear either on a Position Description or associated announcement.  On all language tabs, typing the word TRUE, in all capitals, in the appropriate row of Column A will force the program to include the language in Column B of that row into the appropriate PD section or PD supplement.  The text that will be included is listed in Column B.\n\nShell Tabs\n\nShell tabs contain the template factor language for each factor within the PD.  Shell tabs are in the format \"OC_####\" where the four-digit number represents the Occupational Series.  Other than language edits or corrections, other changes made to shell tabs are not recommended.\n\nTask and KSA Tabs\n\nTask and KSA tabs contain the task or KSA verbiage appropriate to the topic.  HSAC KSA and tasks begin with a letter, NICE Framework has a two digit code corresponding to the NICE Framework code, and NIST 800-16 has a two to four letter code corresponding to the skill area covered.  Note that 800-16 only has KSAs and no task tabs.

[null,"This factor measures the difficulty and complexity of the basic work most typical of the organization(s) directed, as well as other line, staff, or contracted work for which the supervisor has technical or oversight responsibility, either directly or through subordinate supervisors, team leaders, or others.\n\nFirst Level Supervisors\n\nDetermine the highest grade which:\n- best characterizes the nature of the basic (mission oriented) nonsupervisory work performed or overseen by the organization directed; and\n- constitutes 25 percent or more of the workload (not positions or employees) of the organization.\n\nThis means that 25 percent or more of the nonsupervisory duty hours of subordinates and others (based on estimates derived from position descriptions, supervisors, staffing studies, or contract documents) is expended on work at or above the base level credited, or, where extensive contract work is overseen, that 25 percent or more of the dollars spent on human services is for work at or above that level.\n\nInclude the workload of General Schedule subordinates, Federal Wage System employees, assigned military, volunteers, student trainees or non-Federal workers, such as contractor employees, State and local workers, or similar personnel.)\n\nIn determining the highest level of work which constitutes at least 25 percent of workload or duty time, credit trainee, developmental, or other work engineered to grades below normal full performance levels, at full performance levels. Exclude from consideration:\n- the work of lower level positions that primarily support or facilitate the basic work of the unit;\n- any subordinate work that is graded based on criteria in this guide (i.e., supervisory duties) or the Work Leader Grade-Evaluation Guide;\n- work that is graded based on an extraordinary degree of independence from supervision, or personal research accomplishments, or adjust the grades of such work - for purposes of applying this guide - to those appropriate for performance under \"normal\" supervision;\n- work for which the supervisor or a subordinate does not have the responsibilities defined under Factor 3.\n\nFWS, military, contractor, or volunteer work that is similar to that described in this paragraph should also be credited, adjusted or excluded from consideration as above.\nSecond (and Higher) Level Supervisors\n\nFirst, use the method described above for first level supervisors. For many second level supervisors, the base level arrived at by that method will be the correct one.\n\nIn some cases, however, a heavy supervisory or managerial workload related to work above that base level may be present. For these positions: Determine the highest grade of nonsupervisory work directed which requires at least 50 percent of the duty time of the supervisory position under evaluation. The resulting grade may be used as the base level for second (and higher) level supervisors over large workloads -- if sound alignment with other supervisory positions in the organization and agency results.\n\nIn the assessment of the level of any work performed by non-General Schedule employees, the pertinent classification standards should be consulted to derive an appropriate GS equivalent. In assessing supervisory positions which have mostly FWS employees making up their workforce, see the information in the U.S. Office of Personnel Management General Schedule Supervisory Guide HRCD-5 June 1998, April 1998 under Exclusions.","DIFFICULTY OF TYPICAL WORK DIRECTED",5,"FL_SUPV"]
[null,"This factor measures the extent to which various conditions contribute to the difficulty and complexity of carrying out supervisory duties, authorities, and responsibilities. Conditions affecting work for which the supervisor is responsible (whether performed by Federal employees, assigned military, contractors, volunteers, or others) may be considered if they increase the difficulty of carrying out assigned supervisory or managerial duties and authorities.\n\nTo Apply This Factor\n\nStep 1 C Read each Factor Level Definition and select the highest level which the position fully meets.\n\nStep 2 C If the level selected is either 6-1, 6-2, or 6-3, refer to the Special Situations section to be found after the Factor Level Definitions. Read each of the eight situations and determine how many are met by the position. If the position meets 3 or more of the situations (i.e., meets 3 or more of the numbered paragraphs), then add a single level to the level selected in Step 1. For example, if the highest factor level that the position meets is 6-3, and the position also meets three separate numbered paragraphs under Special Situations, credit the position with level 6-4 for Factor 6.","OTHER CONDITIONS",6,"FL_SUPV"]
