Book Synopsis Development of Physical Performance Standards for Army Jobs: The Job Analysis Methodology by : David C. Myers
Download or read book Development of Physical Performance Standards for Army Jobs: The Job Analysis Methodology written by David C. Myers and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A scaled rating procedure for identifying the physical ability requirements of Army jobs was developed and used to collect data for a sample of incumbent soldiers drawn from four Military Occupational Specialties (MOS). The findings indicated that the instruments and procedures designed to obtain perceived physical ability requirements were reliable. The effort produced profiles outlining the physical ability requirements of each MOS given in this report. A criterion task manual containing the more physically demanding tasks for each strength and stamina factor and a procedures manual describing the steps necessary to establish physical ability requirements for additional MOS are published separately as ARI Research Products 80-5a and 80-5b. If the procedure proves valid, the Army can begin to use the methodology to establish physical ability requirements for all MOS on a judgmental rather than an empirical basis. (Author).

Book Synopsis The Changing Nature of Work by : National Research Council
Download or read book The Changing Nature of Work written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-09-07 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there is great debate about how work is changing, there is a clear consensus that changes are fundamental and ongoing. The Changing Nature of Work examines the evidence for change in the world of work. The committee provides a clearly illustrated framework for understanding changes in work and these implications for analyzing the structure of occupations in both the civilian and military sectors. This volume explores the increasing demographic diversity of the workforce, the fluidity of boundaries between lines of work, the interdependent choices for how work is structured-and ultimately, the need for an integrated systematic approach to understanding how work is changing. The book offers a rich array of data and highlighted examples on: Markets, technology, and many other external conditions affecting the nature of work. Research findings on American workers and how they feel about work. Downsizing and the trend toward flatter organizational hierarchies. Autonomy, complexity, and other aspects of work structure. The committee reviews the evolution of occupational analysis and examines the effectiveness of the latest systems in characterizing current and projected changes in civilian and military work. The occupational structure and changing work requirements in the Army are presented as a case study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides a listing of the tasks of four Army jobs which were rated by incumbents as the most physically demanding and the most critical, on the following dimensions: upper body strength(static, dynamic, explosive), lower body strength (static, dynamic, explosive), trunk strength, stamina, consequences of inadequate performance, delay tolerance, and learning difficulty. The jobs are Infantryman, Combat Engineer, Armor Crewman, and Military Police. Research has indicated acceptable reliability for the rating procedure, and the manual indicates some additional utility outside of the military setting. (Author).

Download or read book Hard Work written by Brian J. Sharkey and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2008 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hard Work: Defining Physical Work Performance Requirements focuses on physically demanding occupations that require strength and stamina, such as law enforcement, structural and wildland firefighting, mining, forestry, and the military. It is the first book to examine the relationship of recruitment practices, physical training, and physical evaluation to the intricate environment of corporations, labor organizations, the legal system, and employment rights. Hard Work assists readers in making intelligent and informed decisions resulting in a safer, healthier, and more productive work force. Authors Brian Sharkey and Paul Davis have spent more than 70 years combined researching worker performance in physically demanding professions. Hard Work brings their perspective as exercise scientists to an examination of these factors: -Work requirements and capacity for physically demanding jobs -Physical characteristics of the "athlete-worker," including aerobic and muscular fitness -Test development, validation, and utilization in employee selection -Employee health and job-related fitness -Environmental factors affecting employee performance, such as heat, cold, and altitude -Respiratory protection and lifting guidelines -Legal aspects of employment, consequences of legal decisions, and a proposed alternative to litigation By using case studies and real-life examples of tests and programs, the authors teach readers how to evaluate recruits and maintain employee health and safety. The book also includes nine appendixes offering valuable perspectives on testing, job-related fitness, policies, procedures, and performance assessment. Hard Work: Defining Physical Work Performance Requirements is organized into five parts. Part I begins with definitions of the physically demanding occupation and characteristics of workers available for employment. The legal aspects of employment are also considered, including reference to age, gender, race, and disability. Part II examines the value of initial and periodic evaluations, the test development process, and issues related to testing. Additionally, part II contains an examination of the effects of court decisions and labor unions on the evaluation processes of both new and incumbent employees. Part III discusses implementation of recruit testing designed to determine those individuals who can and cannot perform the job. The inherent challenges in shifting from recruit testing to periodic tests for incumbents are described, and ways to evaluate the costs and benefits of testing and training programs are examined. In part IV, the values and limits of medical examinations and employee wellness programs are considered. Part IV also discusses work physiology and its relationship to performance and presents the job-related physical fitness program as the essential element required for preserving career-long performance and health. Part V discusses employee performance in extreme environments, respiratory protection devices and their impact on the worker, and guidelines designed to reduce the risk of back injuries. It concludes with an examination of legal issues and a proposed alternative to litigation using a collective approach that avoids confrontation and biased testimony and saves taxpayer money. Hard Work: Defining Physical Work Performance Requirements suggests how workers could benefit by working up to job requirements while maintaining their health, safety, and job performance. This unique text seeks to bring about a paradigm shift wherein workers are viewed as occupational athletes who, aided by effective recruitment, testing, and training, receive the necessary support to help them excel in their physically demanding workplace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, there has been considerable interest in standards for physical fitness, especially within the Armed Services. Yet few steps have been implemented by the services to update and improve their approach to the fitness standards process, particularly with regard to occupational and health considerations. This State-of-the-Art Report strives to provide an organized base of knowledge concerning the primary issues of standards development as they might apply to both the military and civilian environments. Chapters, each written by a military or civilian subject-matter expert, focus on history of occupational demands assessment, health-based fitness standards, job analysis, types of physical fitness tests, test validity, setting performance standards, and legal issues. This review is unique in both its scope and timeliness of information.
