Military Personnel Clerical & Technician, GS-0204 Page 3
SERIES DEFINITION
This series includes positions that perform or supervise clerical or technical military personnel work
when such work requires a substantial knowledge of the characteristics, requirements and procedures
of military personnel programs and operations and the legislative, regulatory, policy and procedural
requirements applicable to military personnel transactions and activities.
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Military personnel work involves a wide variety of activities associated with the recruitment, induction,
assignment, training, utilization and separation of members of the armed forces. It includes matters of
military personnel management and administration relating to and affecting commissioned and enlisted
personnel on active duty, members of the Ready and Stand-By Reserve and the National Guard,
military retirees and, under certain circumstances, the dependents of military personnel.
The nature of military personnel management and administration is influenced by the basic mission and
requirements of the defense establishment and the specialized needs of the several services. Military
personnel policies, programs, procedures and practices are governed by a wide array of legislative and
regulatory requirements and are influenced by considerations of both national and individual welfare.
Unlike many personnel systems the military personnel system must make certain basic and continuing
provisions for both the work and personal lives of members of the armed forces. Thus, it includes
certain programs and activities which either are unique to the military establishment or are much less
fully developed in other personnel systems. Illustrative of this are special benefit programs in such areas
as housing or education for veterans of recent conflicts or for their widows or orphans. While
programs of this type are not "personnel" programs in the conventional sense, entitlement to participate
in or receive benefits under such programs is determined on the basis of the military personnel record.
The processes of military personnel management and administration involve three distinct but related
kinds of assignments, i.e., clerical, technical and specialist. The standards which follow provide
classification criteria for military personnel clerk and technician positions. ("Specialist" positions involve
work assignments which require knowledges, skills and abilities sufficiently distinct from those
described herein to require separate occupational treatment. These differences are discussed below.)
MILITARY PERSONNEL CLERK VS.
MILITARY PERSONNEL TECHNICIAN
The distinction between military personnel clerk and technician positions is not always obvious. It
requires careful consideration of the depth and diversity of the knowledges required and of the way in
which these knowledges are employed in the solution of problems.
