Air Force’s new job assignment policies aim for flexibility, stability

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Enlisted airmen will eventually be able to trade job assignments in an effort to offer troops more career flexibility, the Air Force’s top enlisted leader said here Wednesday.

Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force JoAnne Bass also announced several other policy changes in her keynote address at the Air and Space Forces Association’s annual conference outside Washington.

The Air Force is starting to hash out the details of how the swaps would work. Airmen could volunteer to take the place of someone else chosen for a particular assignment, or trade upcoming jobs among one another, the service said.

Here’s how the Air Force could change its job assignment process

Air force leaders are sifting through a list of proposed changes to how airmen are assigned new jobs, and may announce updates by the end of september..

Enlisted airmen other than chief master sergeants, or E-9s, can take advantage of the program. To trade jobs, airmen must hold the same Air Force job and special experience codes, and have reached the same grade and skill level.

“We are in the early stages of establishing the assignment swap program,” Air Force Personnel Center spokesperson Toni Whaley said Wednesday. “We are working with our partners to build out the process and identify business rules to make the program more inclusive with minimum restrictions.”

Whaley didn’t say when the option may become available.

Enlisted airmen will also get at least four months after returning home from an overseas deployment to readjust to life in America, Bass said. That can ease pressure on families to quickly find a place to live, and avoid putting airmen back to work before they are reunited with their household goods.

The Air Force will also issue final decisions during that same four-month period on where returning airmen will work.

Bass wants to make it easier for those who pause their regular jobs to spend time as military training instructors and leaders, as well as enlisted recruiters, to return to those careers.

She intends to clarify the process for how deployed airmen with pregnant spouses can ask to come home and start a new job; clear up confusion about the paperwork needed to base dual-military spouses in the same area; and start sending up-to-date information on assignments to local support staff.

And the Air Force will allow airmen seeking an emergency transfer, such as sexual assault victims, to move regardless of how long they were at their base. Airmen acquitted of sexual assault claims in court-martials can request expedited transfers now as well.

Air Force reverses plan to cut special duty pay for enlisted airmen

Hundreds of enlisted airmen in nearly 30 fields stood to lose $75 to $450 a month in bonus pay..

“Big kudos to our airmen … who came from across our Air Force to look at assignment policies, to dissect that 571-page [Air Force instruction] to identify and make recommendations that will make assignments better for all of us,” Bass said.

As for the Space Force, officials are trying to bake personalization and flexibility into the assignment process as the newest service matures.

“Choice and control are important to people,” Chief Master Sergeant of the Space Force Roger Towberman told reporters at a roundtable on Wednesday. “Blanket policies — in particular, across a small group of people — one, aren’t necessary, and two, can be not all that helpful.”

Military space missions are spread across fewer installations than those of the Air Force. Some are as far-flung and remote as Greenland or Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. That can complicate matters for guardians with children, for instance, or who would prefer to live somewhere other than the major military space hubs in the continental United States.

Towberman said listening to people’s preferences and concerns can lead to happier troops without sacrificing military capability. The service is learning how to have those conversations, one grade level at a time.

More senior airmen, fewer overall enlisted expected in next few years

The shift to more e-4 billets, and fewer e-5s, marks the first major change to how enlisted airmen are spread across the ranks in nearly 20 years..

“The early returns are, ‘Wow, you called me up. You asked what I wanted to do. You cared about what my family wanted. And then you worked with me to find a way that the Space Force gets what the Space Force needs, and I felt like I was invested,’” Towberman said. “The mission is getting done, readiness is high and morale is high.”

Related issues, like how long a guardian should be required to stay in their job before moving to a new unit, are still under discussion.

It can be easier to put down roots while serving in the Space Force, Chief of Space Operations Gen. John “Jay” Raymond added.

“There’s a Colorado hub, a California hub, a Florida hub and a New Mexico hub,” he said. “Because of that, you can stay in one spot ... and still develop in your career field.”

Rachel Cohen is the editor of Air Force Times. She joined the publication as its senior reporter in March 2021. Her work has appeared in the Washington Post, the Frederick News-Post (Md.), Air and Space Forces Magazine, Inside Defense, Inside Health Policy and elsewhere.

2. QUESTION: Do I have an assignment?

Answer . Assignment notification is a commander's role. Once assignments are made, we send them to the MPF and unit commanders are advised. You will be notified shortly thereafter. The release dates for each cycle's assignments are published each quarter. Contact your MPF and/or Commander's Support Staff for the latest assignment information.  You may also look at Virtual MPF (vMPF)

3. QUESTION: Can you verify my volunteer status and preference?

Answer . Most MPFs can verify this as they are now directly connected to the AFPC computer.

4. QUESTION: What is open overseas?

Answer . Under the Enlisted Quarterly Assignments Listing (EQUAL) process, we list the assignments we will match during the next cycle. This list is sent to MPFs approximately four weeks before the match is made. You can review the list and update your preferences if you would like to volunteer for any of the advertised requirements. Freeze date or "vulnerability" columns are included on the EQUAL listing for overseas requirements. The dates are AFSC and grade specific and reflect both long and short tour vulnerability. The long tour date shows Overseas Duty Selection Date (ODSD) and the short tour date shows both the Short Tour Return Date (STRD) and the # of previous short tours. If your dates are on or before the dates shown and the number of short tours are equal or less then the number shown, you are vulnerable for selection as a non-volunteer. Use ONLY your current grade (NOT one grade up or one grade down) unless you're projected for promotion. If you're projected for promotion, use your projected grade ONLY. A1Cs will volunteer based on DOR, promotion eligibility, and skill level as identified on the EQUAL coverpage.   Check Assignment Management System (AMS) to see your EQUAL and EQUAL+ list.

5. QUESTION: What is the status of my follow-on, in-place base-of-preference, or other assignment application?

Answer . These programs are run at different times of the quarter based on various parameters (i.e., homebasing/follow-on applications are processed 120 days prior to projected departure date). MPFs may submit queries regarding home-basing/follow-on applications when departure date is within 90 days and the application was submitted over 30 days ago.  You may also use Virtual MPF (vMPF)

6. QUESTION: As a military couple returning from overseas, why can't we compete for CONUS assignments advertised on the EQUAL list?

Answer . The key word is compete. The overseas returnee assignment process is designed to be fair & equitable by using factors such as the current type of overseas tour you are on, the number of previous short tours you have had, your DOR, etc., to establish a "pecking order" that racks & stacks overseas returnees for each AFSC by grade. In other words, if there were 5 Supply (2S0X1) SSgts returning in a given EQUAL cycle, the above factors would be used to actually prioritize those 5 SSgts, ranking them 1 through 5; then these 5 SSgts would compete (not pick & choose) for the available assignments. In the military couple situation, although there are 2 people, there is only 1 family, and our goal is to keep the family together if at all possible. Moreover, in a military couple's situation, the military members may have different AFSCs or different grades/skill levels from one another. So if we tried to include the military couple in the "pecking order", one member might be #1 in their Grade/AFSC, but their spouse might rank #5 in their Grade/AFSC. There's just no way to include military couples in the EQUAL returnee process and maintain both our goal of keeping the family together and equity for other returnees who are not part of a military couple. Based on this, we have found that "hand matching" these assignments is the best & fairest method. 

7. QUESTION: As an overseas returnee, why can't I get more notification time for my CONUS assignment?

Answer . As an overseas returnee, your assignment process actually begins when you sign your DEROS RIP to indicate you wish to keep your DEROS & not extend nor do an in-place COT (IPCOT). Once we know you are a firm loss from the overseas location, the ball starts rolling for us to determine how many overseas assignments we need to make, i.e., replacements for you and others returning during your three month cycle. Once that's done, we advertise those assignments on the Overseas EQUAL list, then match the most eligible people to those assignments. So in other words, we need to first find out who your replacement is & more importantly where is he/she coming from before we can determine the CONUS assignments and in turn advertise them on the CONUS EQUAL list. This process is all computerized, that's the good news; the bad news is that it is a very time consuming process because of the "old" computer hardware/software being used and the timelines are at the maximum levels now with no flexibility for change under the current computer platform. However, the entire Personnel System (not just assignments) is undergoing a multi-year/multi million dollar modernization/upgrade effort that will eventually allow us to adjust the timelines. Bottom line, we will be providing more notification time for overseas returnees (probably 4-6 weeks more), but our ability to do so is still a couple of years from implementation. In the meantime, we have to live with the stringent timelines of the current system.

8. QUESTION: If I am in the overseas area and desire a Consecutive Overseas Tour (COT), how do I know what requirements to volunteer for on the EQUAL listing ? 

Answer . Individuals with an indefinite DEROS are eligible for a consecutive overseas tour (COT) anytime after completing their original tour. Individuals with an established DEROS can also be considered for a COT but can only volunteer for advertised requirements with a reporting date (RNLTD) equal to their DEROS month or the following two months. For example, assuming you have not already entered the overseas return cycle and your DEROS is Jan, you are eligible to compete for assignments with a Jan, Feb, or Mar reporting. You must also meet the eligibility requirements as outlined in AFI 36-2110 .

9. QUESTION: How do I stand for overseas selection? What is my number on the volunteer/nonvolunteer overseas list?

Answer . Eligibility for overseas listings are maintained by individual assignment NCOs. Relative standing changes daily due to factors such as number of volunteers, available assignments, people entering or leaving the eligible pool (assignments, promotions, retirements, separations, retraining), authorization changes, etc. Therefore, numerical standing by itself is useless data without an understanding of those factors and knowledge of future overseas requirements. Because of that, we do not provide this information in specific terms. However, you can find your approximate vulnerability by checking the freeze dates for your grade and AFSC on the overseas EQUAL listing. This will help you decide if you are "hot" for overseas and, armed with that info, you can more effectively participate in the assignment process. There are a few AFSCs that do not receive assignments under EQUAL (i.e. 1AXXX). Please review the EQUAL list cover page for specifics.

10. QUESTION: What is an Imbalanced AFSC (IAFSC) and can I find out if I have one? 

Answer . An imbalanced AFSC is a specialty in which we have a significantly higher number of requirements overseas than we do in the CONUS. If you have two or more awarded AFSCs and one is or becomes imbalanced, and you are selected for overseas duty, it will be in the imbalanced AFSC. Additionally, to meet overseas requirements, those retraining into an imbalanced skill will not be deferred from reassignment and may be selected for overseas assignment as soon as they are awarded a three skill level in the retraining specialty. On the other hand, if you are retraining from an imbalanced AFSC, you will usually be deferred from overseas assignment for two years from completion of the formal training that awarded the 3 skill level AFSC. You can find out if your AFSC is imbalanced by reviewing the Air Force Retraining Advisory which is maintained by the Personnel Employment Element in your MPF. You can also usually find a copy of it in the Customer Service Element. Imbalanced AFSCs are identified with an asterisk (*) on the overseas EQUAL (currently not available on the Web listing). Click here to view the current Overseas Imbalanced AFSC's.

11. QUESTION: I have recently been selected for an assignment to XYZ AFB. Is there a site on the World Wide Web where I can find information on my new base? 

Answer . As a matter of fact there is information on the world wide web where you can find information on your new assignment. It's a site called Air Force Crossroads . Right now, this site is providing a "one-stop" approach to getting information on just about every major military installation. Once at the desired location you will find additional links that provide local-area information on the community, relocation services, housing information, medical and dental services, and support services, to name a few. It's a promising new website under construction and definitely worth looking into. The address for Air Force Crossroads is: http://www.afcrossroads.com

5 Tips for Managing Successful Overseas Assignments

• Andy Molinsky
• Melissa Hahn

Stay in constant touch and have a plan for their return.

Sending talented employees overseas can be a promising way to leverage the benefits of a global economy. But expatriate assignments can be extremely expensive: up to three times the cost of a person’s typical annual salary, according to some statistics. And despite the investment, many organizations lack the know-how for optimizing the potential benefits, leaving them disappointed with the results. The unfortunate reality is that even companies providing well-crafted relocation packages (including the all-important cultural training) may not have the talent management mechanisms in place to truly leverage the valuable skills expatriate employees gain during their assignments.

31% of multinationals plan to send staff on overseas assignments next year, survey finds

Employers now offer enhanced well-being benefits and the option to work from anywhere, according to willis towers watson.

Seventy-four per cent of overseas employee assignments next year are expected to last between one and five years, according to Willis Towers Watson. Photo: AP

About 31 per cent of multinational companies are willing to send their employees on international assignments in 2022 while only 15 per cent plan to reduce such trips, signalling a gradual return to normality for businesses, according to a new survey .

Seventy-four per cent of those overseas assignments are expected to last between one and five years, with only 9 per cent set to be for shorter terms, between six and 12 months, the survey by global advisory firm Willis Towers Watson, which polled 107 multinationals in 15 countries in July this year, showed.

“Big businesses have found it an immense challenge to move their workforce around during the pandemic, but as conditions improve they are rediscovering the importance of keeping their talent globally mobile,” said Steve Clements, head of integrated and global solutions in the Middle East, Willis Towers Watson.

“As confidence returns, companies are now more willing to move staff overseas for longer placements, which is a positive sign for the UAE labour market and the broader economy.”

Cost of living is a major factor that companies have to consider when negotiating salary packages for employees being transferred to other countries, according to global consultancy Mercer, which released its global Cost of Living survey in June.

Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan, Hong Kong and Beirut are the three most expensive cities in the world for overseas workers in 2021, the survey found.

The cost of living in Dubai and Abu Dhabi fell owing to the diversification of the UAE’s economy, Mercer said. Dubai was ranked 42nd in the Mercer survey, down from 23rd place last year, while Abu Dhabi fell from 39th place to 56th, making the cities more attractive to expats.

Recent government initiatives such as remote working visas and the expansion of the 10-year golden visa programme have encouraged foreign professionals to settle in the UAE.

“The UAE’s recent visa changes means it also stands to gain from those companies freeing their staff to work anywhere in the region or the world, though employers need to be wary of tax and legal implications,” Mr Clements said.

Half of the respondents to the Willis Towers Watson survey are rethinking their global mobility strategy, with one in five offering employees the opportunity to “ work from anywhere ”, the research found.

Flexible perks and incentives are increasingly commonplace in workplaces globally as companies adapt to changing dynamics after nearly two years since the onset of the pandemic. Employees are increasingly insisting on flexible hours, enhanced benefits and better treatment.

About 42 per cent of remote workers said if their company does not continue to offer options to work from home in the long term, they will look for a job that does, according to a March 2021 survey by financial services company Prudential.

Multinationals are also offering enhanced telehealth services and employee assistance programmes (EAPs) to their staff based overseas after the pandemic, the Willis Towers Watson survey revealed.

Seventy one per cent of companies now offer EAPs to their internationally mobile employees, up from 53 per cent in 2019. Additionally, 44 per cent expanded their well-being benefits this year, up from 30 per cent in 2019, the research found.

“Employers have become more focused on giving their expat staff and business travellers an expanded level of coverage and support,” Mr Clements said.

“In the early days of the pandemic, many employees were stranded in countries that were not their normal base, and so telehealth and mental well-being services went from being nice-to-haves to essential. Those benefits are here to stay and will continue to evolve.”

Global business travel is expected to reach two-thirds of pre-pandemic levels by the end of next year, with the revival led by Asia and the Middle East, the World Travel & Tourism Council said in a report in collaboration with McKinsey last month.

Overseas list closes soon....when do assignments start dropping?

Hey guys, The Apr-Jun cycle closes today, and I can't for the life of me remember when assignments drop. Officially the notification date is Sep 15th, but I know most of them drop long before then.
