Technician progression • Individual technician level based on: • Level of supervision required • Responsibility taken on board • Self-Motivation/Attitude • Application of pertinent knowledge • Achieving the desired skill sets. • Not based on: • Length of service • Direct comparison with others
Questions to ask • Where am I know? • Agree with line manager your current status • Do I want additional responsibility? • Some people are happy where they currently are. • What do I need to do to meet the criteria for promotion to the next level? • having answered the first two this should be obvious
Personal assessment against the criteria for promotion • For Technicians this is set out in the document: • Roles and Responsibilities for JAC technician Levels • Knowing where you are you can establish your weak areas • Work on them • Do this require additional training? • Are there specific duties or objectives that will allow you to develop?
Using your PWP • Ensure that you and you line manager are in agreement on the way ahead. • Develop a strategy to meet the requirements • Having specific objectives that meet the operational need of the JAC is a win/win • In conjunction with your line manager develop these objectives and add the ones that can realistically be achieved this year to your PWP. • Where they run into next year, can there be interim objectives?

Abuse them and we loose them • Five minutes snow clearing does not warrant 1.3 hours off in lieu. This should be considered part of our normal duties. • From now on the criteria for snow points includes a minimum clearance duration of 1 hour.
