4 134 PART III .. 149 REVISION SUMMARY .. 153 Administrative Work in the Inspection, Investigation, Enforcement, and Compliance Group, 1800 Issued: March 2009 Revised: April 2011 Office of Personnel Management 3 INTRODUCTION This Job Family Standard (JFS) provides series definitions, titling instructions, and grading criteria for nonsupervisory administrative positions in the General Inspection, Investigation, Enforcement, and Compliance Group, 1800, for General Schedule (GS) and other white collar pay plans. In the General Schedule Position Classification system established under chapter 51 of title 5, United States Code, the positions addressed here would be two-grade interval positions.

5 This JFS is divided into three parts. Part I contains occupational information applicable to Federal work covered by the JFS without regard to pay plan or Classification system. Part II provides the grading criteria for positions classified in accordance with GS grade definitions. Part III includes explanatory material about the development of this JFS. The term General Schedule or GS denotes the major Position Classification system and pay structure for white collar work in the Federal Government. Agencies no longer subject to chapter 51 have replaced the GS pay plan indicator with agency-unique pay plan indicators. For that reason, reference to General Schedule or GS has been omitted from much of this JFS.
