Liquid Fuel Systems Maintenance Career Ladder AFS 545X1.
Abstract
This report is a result of analysis of a survey of 305 of the 407 assigned 545X1 personnel, for a 75 percent sample. This sample was representative across major commands and paygrades. Analysis revealed a common technical job performed by most 545X1 personnel. Five noteworthy variations within this job were found, differing mainly on the breadth of their job and non-technical responsibilities. In addition, one group of Shop Foremen were also identified performing mainly a supervisory and managerial job. First-term 545X1 personnel are performing the full spectrum of technical liquid fuel systems maintenance tasks. With experience, 545X1 personnel continue to perform many of the same technical tasks; however, they also assume increasing managerial and supervisory responsibilities. Comparison of the 545X1 Specialty Descriptions with OSR data revealed that these documents accurately reflect the tasks and jobs performed. Both the 545X1 STS and POI 3ABR54531 were found to be comprehensive and representative of the job performance of 545X1 personnel. One STS paragraph and two areas of the POI were identified for review.
