Personnelist: Classification

What is submitted?

If a new firefighter or law enforcement position must be written (percentages must be shown next to each "Major Duties" paragraph), it must first be classified, and then submitted to the Firefighter and Law enforcement Officer Retirement Team for a coverage determination.

PLEASE NOTE, DO NOT PUT STATEMENTS IN THE BODY OF THE PD OR ON THE OF-8 SUCH AS "THIS POSITION QUALIFIES AS A PRIMARY POSITION UNDER THE SPECIAL RETIREMENT PROGRAM". The only person authorized to make that determination is the Secretary of Interior's Designee. We will annotate the PD with the appropriate remarks, after the determination is made.

The position description should be in Factor Evaluation System (FES) format. Factor 8 should describe rigorous/physical standards. If the position is not in FES format, somewhere in the position description the physical requirements should be included.
