PHYSICAL DEMANDS:
The work is generally sedentary with periodic need for site visits involving walking, climbing, bending and crawling to assess or inspect existing and new facilities and generally traversing construction sites. Occasional surveys and inspections of the Navy and Marine Corps' infrastructure will require some physical exertion (For example, crawlspace inspections, above and below deck pier evaluations, etc.). A valid driver's license is required for driving to site visits and meetings at various installations.
WORK ENVIRONMENT
Work generally involves risks and observance of normal safety precautions typical of an office setting. However, field inspections are made which require protective clothing. Protective clothing worn in field inspections includes hard hats, reflective vest, hard-toed boots, safety glasses, and ear protection. Other protective wear such as safety harnesses, coveralls, and gloves may be required for certain situations.
The incumbent is required to work in areas where certain potentially harmful physical and chemical agents are present. These agents may include but are not limited to: fumes, dust, noise, heat, ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, chemicals, etc. To ensure employee safety and health, NAVFAC FECs maintain personnel protection programs consistent with applicable laws and regulations. These programs include protective equipment (i.e. ear protection or respirator), and laws and medical surveillance. As part of medical surveillance programs, the incumbent may be required to take medical examinations to assess medical qualifications for duty involving these agents.
