Electrical Power Producton Career Ladder. AFSCs 54232, 54252, 54272, and 54299.

Abstract

The Electrical Power Production job inventory was administered during the period October 1977 through February 1978. Survey results are based on responses from 1,784 of the 2,570 incumbents assigned to the 542X2/54299 career ladder. This represents 70 percent of all assigned personnel. Ninety-five percent of the survey respondents comprised six major groups and three independent job types. Two groups consisted of two different levels of supervisors and managers. By far the largest group was that of portable generator operator/mechanics. Other groups identified included prime power plant operator/mechanics and arresting system personnel. In general, 5-skill level personnel perform all maintenance duties required of the specialty. The 7-skill level personnel perform an increased number of supervisory tasks and spend a greater percent of their time on these tasks than do the 5-skill level respondents. Conversely, the 7-level respondents spend less time and perform fewer maintenance and operating tasks. Superintendents perform primarily managerial functions and spend little time on supervisory and maintenance tasks.
