Physical DemandsThe work is primarily sedentary. However, occasional air and vehicular travel is required to field offices, including field locations, for on-site review of forest management operations, and harvest operations at sites that can require physical capability and stamina to negotiate steep, forested terrain.
Working ConditionsWork is performed generally in an office setting, with occasional field trips to forest locations. Office work is performed in a well-lighted and ventilated room, with personal phone service.
Travel, when required dictates that the employees drive government vehicles to and from district offices during all kinds of weather conditions. Field examination of specific sites will occasionally involve strenuous walking and climbing in areas of steep topography, under potentially hazardous footing conditions, due to downed trees, logs, brush, or debris where rain or snow conditions may compound these hazardous conditions. Safety precautions on these occasions will require use of protective equipment.
Certain incentives (such as Recruitment, Relocation or Student Loan Repayment) may be authorized to eligible selectees. If eligible and qualified, you may be offered a recruitment or relocation incentive. The decision to offer an incentive will be made on a case-by-case basis and is neither promised nor guaranteed.
