Federal employees who meet the definition of a "surplus" or "displaced" employee.
U.S. Citizens, Nationals or those who owe allegiance to the U.S.
This is a Direct Hiring Authority notice open to the Public.
This is an Expeditionary Civilian (EC) position and the incumbent will be designated as Emergency Essential (EE). In the event of a crisis situation, the incumbent may be required to deploy via temporary reassignment or be required to stay in place to support contingency operations. The incumbent may be required to take part in readiness exercises. This position cannot be vacated during a national emergency or mobilization without seriously impairing the capability of the organization to function effectively; therefore, the position requires the incumbent to be screened from military recall. Military Reservists selected for an EC position must arrange for a military deployment waiver from the Secretary Service level or transfer to the IRR Standby Reserve prior to appointment to an EC position. The waiver or transfer will remain in effect while assigned to the EC position. This requirement must be met prior to placement in an EC position. Positions identified as EE are subject to deployment to combat support situations. Deployment will be via Temporary Duty (TDY) orders. Deployment may entitle the employee to additional monetary compensation dependent upon the deployment location. Additional allocations are based on the Department of State's determination of a combat zone.
MOBILITY AGREEMENT REQUIRED: Continental United States (CONUS). A signed mobility agreement to accept directed TDY or PCS is required. Failure to comply with the signed agreement may result in personnel separation in accordance with appropriate U.S. Office of Personnel Management regulations, or may adversely affect career.
USCENTCOM Physical Requirement: Must meet the requirements specified within USCENTCOM MOD 13 Individual Protection and Individual-Unit Deployment Policy in relation to occupying a position at an overseas/deployed location within the CENTCOM area.
Physical Effort
The incumbent exerts moderate physical effort because the large vehicles driven and accompanying heavy loads are difficult to handle and maneuver, e.g., upper body strength must be used to turn the steering wheel. Numerous hand and foot controls are often used simultaneously, e.g., clutch, accelerator, gearshift, and levers. Dual braking systems must be manipulated to avoid jackknifing. Since vehicles operated are large, the cab is often located considerably above ground level; therefore, some effort is required when entering and existing the vehicle. Bending, reaching, lifting, pulling, stooping, and exertion of physical effort is involved when attaching/detaching trailers and securing cargo. Performs work on hard surfaces and in work areas that require standing, stooping, bending and working in tiring and uncomfortable positions. Frequently lifts and carries items weighing up to 70 lbs. Moderate physical effort is used in operating hand and foot controls when operating materials handling equipment.
Working Conditions
The incumbent typically operates a vehicle while sitting behind a steering wheel in an enclosed or covered cab. Vehicles operated may or may not be equipped with a heater and/or air conditioning. Occasionally, the incumbent will work outdoors or in an enclosed structure, e.g., when performing safety inspections, making minor emergency repairs; observing the loading/unloading of cargo, filling fluid levels, etc. Vehicles are operated in all types of prevailing weather conditions and (1) in congested areas of a supply depot/center where there is frequent vehicle, materials handling, equipment, rail, pedestrian, and bicycle traffic; and/or (2) in traffic and at highway speeds on public roadways during the day or night. There is exposure to dirt, grease, fumes, and noise. There is the possibility of life-threatening accidents, cuts, bruises, abrasions, and broken bones. Work may be performed inside/outside a warehouse which may be cold, damp or hot. May be exposed to injury from mechanical equipment, falling objects, shifting loads or collisions.
