scope:

This publication applies to all military services and defense agencies. The data contained herein will be used to the maximum extent practicable in the development of labor performance standards in compliance with DoD Directive 5010.31.

PURPOSE. This volume of Miscellaneous Occupations Standard Time Data is one of ten volumes of standard time data in the 11 volume series included in DWMSTDP. Miscellaneous Occupations as categorized by the Department of Labor includes those occupations concerned with transportation services (surface, water and air); materials handling, packaging and warehousing; utilities; amusement, recreation and motion picture services; mining and logging; graphic arts; and various other activities. This volume provides a single DoD source for Standard Time Data elements which can be used in the development of labor standards for:

Organizations, activities or functional areas whose primary mission correlates to miscellaneous occupations, e.g., surface, water and air transport and terminal operations; packaging or packing; materials handling, warehousing.

Miscellaneous type operations which are accomplished in organizations, activities or functional areas with primary missions not correlated to Miscellaneous Occupations, e.g., packagers or material handlers assigned to maintenance or machine shops.

Elements of work performed by personnel whose primary job is other than Miscellaneous but who may actually do that type work as part of their job, e.g., a machinist attaching and operating a hoist to a part being machined, (materials handling), a mechanic unpacking a part to be installed, (packaging), or a construction worker handling materials, (materials handling).
