Additional Information This announcement may be used to fill additional positions if identical vacancies occur within 90 days of the issue date of the referral certificate. Non-Competitive Rehire Eligibility: Temporary seasonal employees can only maintain their non-competitive rehire eligibility if they work no more than a combined total of Temporary NTE less than 1040 hours anywhere in the National Park Service (NPS) within their established service year. Accordingly, non-competitive rehire eligibility allows for re-appointment to the same position or another position appropriate for temporary appointment with the same qualification requirements (5 CFR 316.402[b][7]), based on series and grade, anywhere in the major subdivision (NPS). If you have held a temporary seasonal appointment in the past 12 months and have already worked the maximum temporary appointment less than 1040 hours during that period, you are still welcome to apply. However, please be aware that exceeding the limit of 1040 hours in your established service year will result in the loss of your non-competitive rehire eligibility. The limit can be exceeded by working multiple temporary seasonal positions that result in a combined total greater than 1040 hours. The limit also can be exceeded by working a single temporary seasonal appointment that exceeds 1040 hours, unless granted an exception by OPM. Employment may be terminated at any time due to fluctuations in funding levels, project needs, employee performance, or other considerations. Physical Demands: The work requires speed and endurance capacity both of them very demonstrably above average - so as to be able to do the following, back-to-back and at full throttle. The lack of such speed and endurance capacity can lead to consequences that are literally irrevocable. To guard against that happening the incumbent together with all other members of this park's surf-lifeguard staff GS-03 thru GS-07 inclusive participates in the following mandatory, supervisor conducted and documented, physical conditioning and skills proficiency training regimen for the entire period of employment: Run 1.25 miles in less than 12 minutes (Two times weekly); Participate in a simulated ocean-rescue drill (Once weekly); Review urgent-care and CPR/AED procedures (Once Weekly). The aim of this ongoing training regimen is to assure that the incumbent like all other surf-lifeguard staff maintains a minimum performance level that increases the likelihood of success in meeting the demanding challenges singular to surf-lifeguard work: In a word, then, this ongoing and rigorous training seeks to make very real the phrase, "At the ready". Must be able to lift 50 pounds. Working Conditions: Working Conditions: The work environment involves potentially high risks (e.g., those associated with long-term exposure to the sun, the risk of marine animal attach, the risk of inadvertently being pinned under a 300-pound surf-boat in the attempt to beach it, etc. The foregoing representative sample of potentially high risks associated with surf-lifeguard work requires the incumbent and, life-wise, all other surf-lifeguard staff to take prudent precautions to eliminate, or to at least very significantly minimize the job-related risks in question.
