Security Police Career Ladders AFSCs 811X0/A, 811X2/A, 81199, and CEM Code 81100.
Abstract
The 1979 occupational survey of the Security Police career field yielded a large number of job groups which described all aspects of security and law enforcement functions. The analysis of tasks performed by job incumbents at each skill level in each ladder revealed a relatively logical and orderly pattern of job and career progression. Comparison of the AFM 39-1 classification descriptions for each ladder were found to be an accurate description of the functions performed. Analysis of task factor information (task difficulty and training emphasis) revealed a different aspect of the occupational survey data. Tasks generally rated as difficult to learn to perform were not performed by the more junior personnel while those tasks with high training emphasis values were performed by relatively large percentages of first term personnel. Review of the job satisfaction indicators suggested that personnel in the Security ladder do not find their jobs as interesting or that their jobs utilize their talents as well as do the law enforcement personnel. Security respondents do perceive that their training is well utilized.
