The work involves frequent, strenuous activities such as climbing vertical ladders, staging, or scaffolding in drydock and vessel areas; working in cramped quarters undergoing repair; and working in areas where footing may be insecure. Incumbent may carry items up to 50 pounds. The incumbent may be assigned to work in areas where certain potentially harmful physical and chemical agents are present. The work of a radiological control technician involves performing operations on crane booms, on staging in drydocks and under adverse weather conditions. The stress of these kinds of environmental factors significantly increases the danger which exists in an environment of heavy industrial work. The incumbent must often persuade, influence, motivate, or gain compliance from others in implementing radiological safety requirements which may require resolution of work schedule conflicts. This position is subject to work an uncommon tour, including nights, weekends, and holidays to meet mission requirements. Overtime or night differential pay and/or unusual duty hours may be required. Certain incentives (such as Recruitment, Relocation or Student Loan Repayment) may be authorized to eligible selectees.
