Additional Information (Continued): This position requires that the incumbent obtain and maintain current cardiopulmonary resuscitation certification via command sponsored CPR training and annual refresher training (offered during working hours). Physical Demands Approximately 20 percent of the work is performed in an office setting. The shipboard investigation phase of a task involves considerable walking, climbing and crawling in and around the equipment/system with marginal accessibility being a frequent problem. Standing and walking for several hours at a time on hard steel decks also occurs regularly during ship visits. Occasionally rapid results are required to meet operational schedules. Work may demand rapid response under high pressure situations. This will require a moderate degree of creativity and innovation, since new methods of technically sound alternatives may be necessary. Work Environment The work regularly involves frequent exposure to hazardous conditions such as: high electrical voltages; large rotating machinery element; electromagnetic radiation from high powered transmitters; nuclear radiation in and around machinery spaces aboard nuclear powered ships; explosive, flammable or incendiary materials, turbines, condensers, etc.; and entering enclosed spaces below the ship's water line (SONAR domes, tanks, etc.). The work is normally required aboard U.S. and foreign naval ships while underway, at berths, at anchor or at buoys within the harbor. On numerous occasions and with short notice, there will be requirements to perform temporary additional duty at sea on naval ships and/or at naval or private shipyards located throughout the world (including combat zones) utilizing government as well as commercial aircraft. Helicopter and aircraft (COD) flights are utilized for transfer to/from ships at sea. High line transfer from ship to ship may be occasionally required. This position has been identified as one in which shift hours may be changed without three days advance notice and for periods of less than three weeks.
