Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
Exhibit 3 - NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
The NWFF positions that perform fire duties 51% or more of their time fit into the following four
categories:
Direct Fire - Positions that perform "boots on the ground" fire duties.
Fire Management Program - Positions that manage and have direct policy influence on the
wildland fire program.
•
Notes:
o
Various Management Specialists (e.g., Fire Management Specialists, Fuels
Management Specialists, Rangeland Management Specialists) with grades of
GS-12 and above and Program Specialists with grades of GS-11 and above
were considered Fire Management Program positions.
o
FS Employees identified as Unit Fire Program Managers (UFPM), Forest
Assistant Fire Management Officers (FAFMO), District or Zone Assistant Fire
Management Officers (DZAFMO), and District or Zone Fire Management Officers
(DZFMO) in IQCS were considered as Fire Management Officers and included in
the Fire Management Program category.
Support - Positions that provide support (products, materials, information, etc.) directly to
Direct Fire positions (e.g., cache workers provide materials for firefighters to perform fire
line duties).
Administrative and Business Management Functions - Positions that provide administrative
and other business (e.g., budget & finance) support to the NWFF community.
Each of these categories is vital to the success of the NWFF program. However, this
assessment focuses primarily on the Direct Fire and Fire Management Program categories.
The following sections contain details of the NWFF workforce community that perform fire
duties 51% or more of their time per year. Section Ex3 compares the workforces between the
DOI and Forest Service, as well as within the different bureaus of the DOI. Sections Ex3.1
through Ex3.2 contain detailed analysis for each organization.
Note: As discussed in Exhibits 6 and 7, FS employee data identified positions as
“Permanent” or “Non-permanent”, while DOI bureaus identified positions as “Temporary”
and “Permanent”. Non-permanent positions and Temporary positions were assumed to be
the same for analysis purposes and the terms may be used interchangeably throughout this
report.

3.1
Forest Service 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
Over five years, the total FS 51% workforce population fluctuated by 5% between its
highest and lowest points and is showing a decreasing trend in overall population, Table
Ex3.7. Figure Ex3.4 shows that the Direct Fire position category consistently contains the
highest percentage of the total population of FS employees who bill 51% or more of their
time to a fire program. Although this category contains a five-year average of 78% of the
total population, the percentage of the population contained in this category shows a
slightly decreasing trend. Conversely, the Fire Management Program category is showing
a slightly increasing trend over time. This trend correlates with leadership and oversight
requirements following Kramer and 30 Mile mitigation strategies and the increase in fuels
management positions. 22

Table Ex3.8 below displays the percentage of the FS 51% workforce shown in Table Ex3.7
above that is covered by the 6c retirement benefit. As shown, an average of 64% of the
employees in the Direct Fire category is covered by the benefit. This percentage has
gradually increased over the five fiscal years. In addition, an average of 54% of the
employees in the Fire Management Program category is covered by the benefit, which has
remained consistent over the five year period. Smaller percentages of the workforces in the
Support and Administrative & Business Management functions are covered by the benefit,
as expected.

The following tables show the permanent positions within the FS 51% workforce. The
permanent FS 51% workforce experienced an even smaller fluctuation than the full
workforce (1.5%) from its highest and lowest points, indicating that the population
fluctuation was mainly due to fluctuations in the temporary workforce. Figure Ex3.5 shows
that the Direct Fire position category consistently contains the highest percentage of the
total population of permanent FS employees who bill 51% or more of their time to a fire
program. Since the temporary fire workforce would perform direct fire duties, the Direct Fire
category comprises a slightly lower percentage of the permanent workforce than it does
when temporary employees are included, Figure Ex3.4. As a result, the Fire Management
Program category makes up a higher percentage of the permanent workforce when
temporary employees are not included. The FS permanent 51% workforce shows
consistent populations and category distributions over the five analysis years.

Table Ex3.10 below displays the percentage of the permanent FS 51% workforce that is
covered by the 6c retirement benefit. As expected, 84% of the permanent employees in the
Direct Fire category are covered by the benefit consistently over the five fiscal years
compared to 64% of the full 51% workforce. The three other position categories showed a
consistent percentage of the permanent workforce being covered by the 6c benefit
compared to Table Ex3.8. The percentage differences can be directly attributed to the
higher percentage of employees in the non-permanent workforce in the Direct Fire category
compared to the other categories.

The following tables show the non-permanent positions within the FS 51% workforce. The
non-permanent FS 51% workforce experienced an significantly higher fluctuation than the
full workforce (21%) from its highest and lowest points, supporting the previous discussion
that the population fluctuations shown in the full 51% workforce was directly attributable to
fluctuations in the non-permanent workforce. These fluctuations are normal due to the
emergency response nature of some fire programs. The non-permanent workforce is used
to supplement the NWFF workforce in times of high workloads.
Figure Ex3.6 shows that the Direct Fire position category consistently contains the highest
percentage of the total population of non-permanent FS employees who bill 51% or more of
their time to a fire program. As discussed earlier, the non-permanent fire workforce would
perform direct fire duties and some support duties, supported by Figure Ex3.6.

Management Program category is somewhat misleading in that it refers to 22 employees in
total.

Table Ex3.13 above shows that the ratio of Lead Forestry Techs to Forestry Aid and Forestry
Tech positions is one lead to every 5.7 tech and aid positions (1:5.7) in FY 2009. The ratio of
supervisory positions to the others is one supervisor to 5.1 positions (1:5.1) in FY 2009. This
finding aligns with the fire safety policy that the supervision span of control should be one to five
(1:5) employees. PMS 410-1 Fire-line Handbook19 describes a supervisor to subordinate
resource ratio of from three-to-seven individuals with five-to-one being established as the
optimum. This is also consistent with agencies that utilize National Fire Management Analysis
System (NFMAS) as their primary planning tool. NFMAS determines productivity rates within
units based on a variety of resource objectives, resource threats, and the agencies goal of initial
attack success. Production rates are determined by a variety of factors and limitations and are
measured in chains produced per hour (i.e., One Chain = 66 feet or approximately plus or minus
12 paces).
Table Ex3.14 below shows the number of permanent 51% direct fire positions in these four
position titles. As shown, the population distributions are similar, with the exception of the
Forestry Aid positions. As shown in the detailed analysis in Section Ex3.1.3 and also Table
Ex3.14 below, FS consistently utilizes a higher number of non-permanent Forestry Aid positions
than permanent Forestry Aid positions. The non-permanent population results in the optimal
supervisory ratios discussed above. As shown in Table Ex3.14, the ratio of permanent Forestry
Aid and Forestry Tech positions to permanent Leads is 1:4.1 in FY 2009 and the ratio of
permanent supervisory positions to the other permanent positions is 1:3.6 positions.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.3 6c Employee Retirement Analysis
Employees covered by the 6c Retirement Benefit are subject to a mandatory retirement age of
57 years old. As a result, the retirement eligibility forecasts for 6c covered employees are
different than that of voluntary retirement eligibility under the CSRS and FERS retirement
systems. As discussed in Section Ex3, employee data was used for the NWFF analysis,
therefore the team had to make the assumption that an employee who is covered by the 6c
benefit holds a 6c covered position. This may not be true in a limited number of cases, but the
number should not be statistically significant. In FY 2009, 24 employees (40%) of the 60
employees holding permanent Forestry Aid positions are covered by the 6c benefit. Their
average number of years from the age of 57 (i.e., mandatory retirement) is 29.6 years.
Figure Ex3.16 below displays the distribution of the mandatory retirement date for the
employees covered by the benefit in FY 2009 that hold Forestry Aid positions. One thing to
note is that the distribution is a snapshot in time, so any spikes in the graph in future years may
be smoothed out over time due to attrition. The FY 2009 Forestry Aid employees would feasibly
move on to other positions within fire and be backfilled by younger employees since the average
age of new employees in Forestry Aid positions is 24.9 years old (Section Ex3.1.3.3, Table
Ex3.78).

the 6c Retirement Benefit in Permanent Forestry Aid Positions

Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.4 Attrition Analysis
Table Ex3.77 below identifies the actual movement of employees over the five fiscal years
covered by this study. The table accounts for movement between the two phases of the study
within the permanent Forestry Aid position title, but movement to another position title in fire
covers both phases of the study (i.e., if an employee moves to a Forestry Tech position, that
Forestry Tech position may be in either Phase 1 or Phase 2.). Figure Ex3.17 displays the
different ways that employees can enter and exit Forestry Aid positions, as well as the five-year
average number of employees that fit into each type of movement. Figure Ex3.18 displays that
the net five-year average growth of Forestry Aid positions is six employees per year. This
growth coincides with the population increase shown in the total number of employees that bill
51% or more of their time to fire in Forestry Aid Positions between FY 2005 and FY 2009.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.9.1 6c Employee Retirement Analysis
Employees covered by the 6c Retirement Benefit are subject to a mandatory retirement age of
57 years old. As a result, the retirement eligibility forecasts for 6c covered employees are
different than that of voluntary retirement eligibility under the CSRS and FERS retirement
systems. As discussed in Section Ex3, employee data was used for the NWFF analysis,
therefore the team had to make the assumption that an employee who is covered by the 6c
benefit holds a 6c covered position. This may not be true in a limited number of cases, but the
number should not be statistically significant. In FY 2009, 2,237 employees (79%) of the 2,822
employees holding permanent Forestry Tech positions are covered by the 6c benefit. Their
average number of years from the age of 57 (i.e., mandatory retirement) is 22.8 years.
Figure Ex3.37 below displays the distribution of the mandatory retirement date for the
employees covered by the benefit in FY 2009 that hold Forestry Tech positions. One thing to
note is that the distribution is a snapshot in time, so any spikes in the graph in future years (i.e.,
beyond 10 years or FY 2020) will be smoothed out over time due to attrition. The FY 2009
Forestry Tech employees would feasibly move on to other positions within fire and be backfilled
by younger employees since the average age of new employees in Forestry Tech positions is
29.0 years old and therefore 28 years from mandatory retirement age (Section Ex3.1.4.3, Table
Ex3.181).

the 6c Retirement Benefit in Permanent Forestry Tech Positions

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.10 Attrition Analysis
Table Ex3.180 below identifies the actual movement of employees over the five fiscal years
covered by this study. The table accounts for movement between the two phases of the study
within the permanent Forestry Tech position title, but movement to another position title in fire
covers both phases of the study (i.e., if an employee moves to a Lead Forestry Tech position,
that Lead Forestry Tech position may be in either Phase 1 or Phase 2.). Figure Ex3.38 displays
the different ways that employees can enter and exit Forestry Tech positions, as well as the
five-year average number of employees that fit into each type of movement. Figure Ex3.39
displays that the net five-year average growth of Forestry Tech positions is 24 employees per
year. This growth coincides with the population increase shown in the total number of
employees that bill 51% or more of their time to fire in Forestry Tech Positions between FY 2005
and FY 2009.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.15.1 6c Employee Retirement Analysis
Employees covered by the 6c Retirement Benefit are subject to a mandatory retirement age of
57 years old. As a result, the retirement eligibility forecasts for 6c covered employees are
different than that of voluntary retirement eligibility under the CSRS and FERS retirement
systems. As discussed in Section Ex3, employee data was used for the NWFF analysis,
therefore the team had to make the assumption that an employee who is covered by the 6c
benefit holds a 6c covered position. This may not be true in a limited number of cases, but the
number should not be statistically significant. In FY 2009, 670 employees (95%) of the 704
employees holding permanent Lead Forestry Tech positions are covered by the 6c benefit.
Their average number of years from the age of 57 (i.e., mandatory retirement) is 22.8 years.
Figure Ex3.58 below displays the distribution of the mandatory retirement date for the
employees covered by the benefit in FY 2009 that hold Lead Forestry Tech positions. One thing
to note is that the distribution is a snapshot in time, so any spikes in the graph in future years
(i.e., beyond 10 years or FY 2020) will be smoothed out over time due to attrition. The FY 2009
Lead Forestry Tech employees would feasibly move on to other positions within fire and be
backfilled by younger employees since the average age of new employees in Lead Forestry
Tech positions is 33.2 years old and therefore 23.8 years from mandatory retirement age
(Section Ex3.1.5.3, Table Ex3.284).

Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.16 Attrition Analysis
Table Ex3.283 below identifies the actual movement of employees over the five fiscal years
covered by this study. The table accounts for movement between the two phases of the study
within the permanent Lead Forestry Tech position title, but movement to another position title in
fire covers both phases of the study (i.e., if an employee moves to a Supervisory Forestry Tech
position, that position may be in either Phase 1 or Phase 2.). Figure Ex3.59 displays the
different ways that employees can enter and exit these positions, as well as the five-year
average number of employees that fit into each type of movement. Figure Ex3.60 displays that
the net five-year average loss is 19 Lead Forestry Tech employees per year. This loss
coincides with the population decrease shown in the total number of employees that bill 51% or
more of their time to fire in Lead Forestry Tech Positions between FY 2005 and FY 2009.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.21.1 6c Employee Retirement Analysis
Employees covered by the 6c Retirement Benefit are subject to a mandatory retirement age of 57 years old. As a result, the
retirement eligibility forecasts for 6c covered employees are different than that of voluntary retirement eligibility under the CSRS and
FERS retirement systems. As discussed in Section Ex3, employee data was used for the NWFF analysis, therefore the team had to
make the assumption that an employee who is covered by the 6c benefit holds a 6c covered position. This may not be true in a
limited number of cases, but the number should not be statistically significant. In FY 2009, 949 employees (94%) of the 1,008
employees holding permanent Supervisory Forestry Tech positions are covered by the 6c benefit. Their average number of years
from the age of 57 (i.e., mandatory retirement) is 16.0 years.
Figure Ex3.79 below displays the distribution of the mandatory retirement date for the employees covered by the benefit in FY 2009
that hold Supervisory Forestry Tech positions. One thing to note is that the distribution is a snapshot in time, so any spikes in the
graph in future years (i.e., beyond 10 years or FY 2020) will be smoothed out over time due to attrition. The FY 2009 Supervisory
Forestry Tech employees would feasibly move on to other positions within fire and be backfilled by younger employees since the
average age of new employees in Supervisory Forestry Tech positions is 35.2 years old and therefore 21.8 years from mandatory
retirement age (Section Ex3.1.6.3, Table Ex3.387).
As shown in the figure below, 25.4% of the current 6c covered employees holding permanent Supervisory Forestry Tech positions
will reach mandatory retirement by 2020. This fact, paired with the net attrition loss shown in Section Ex3.1.6.3 indicates the
potential for shortage of Supervisory Forestry Tech positions in the future.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.22 Attrition Analysis
Table Ex3.386 below identifies the actual movement of employees over the five fiscal years
covered by this study. The table accounts for movement between the two phases of the study
within the permanent Supervisory Forestry Tech position title, but movement to another position
title in fire covers both phases of the study (i.e., if an employee moves to an FMO position, that
position may be in either Phase 1 or Phase 2.). Figure Ex3.80 displays the different ways that
employees can enter and exit these positions, as well as the five-year average number of
employees that fit into each type of movement. Figure Ex3.81 displays that the net five-year
average loss is 52 Supervisory Forestry Tech employees per year. This loss coincides with the
population decrease shown in the total number of employees that bill 51% or more of their time
to fire in Supervisory Forestry Tech Positions between FY 2005 and FY 2009.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.27.1 6c Employee Retirement Analysis
Employees covered by the 6c Retirement Benefit are subject to a mandatory retirement age of
57 years old. As a result, the retirement eligibility forecasts for 6c covered employees are
different than that of voluntary retirement eligibility under the CSRS and FERS retirement
systems. As discussed in Section Ex3, employee data was used for the NWFF analysis,
therefore the team had to make the assumption that an employee who is covered by the 6c
benefit holds a 6c covered position. This may not be true in a limited number of cases, but the
number should not be statistically significant. In FY 2009, 410 employees (77%) of the 533
permanent FMO positions are covered by the 6c benefit. Their average number of years from
the age of 57 (i.e., mandatory retirement) is 12.5 years.
Figure Ex3.100 below displays the distribution of the mandatory retirement date for the
employees covered by the benefit in FY 2009 that hold FMO positions. One thing to note is that
the distribution is a snapshot in time, so any spikes in the graph in future years (i.e., beyond 10
years or FY 2020) will be smoothed out over time due to attrition. The FY 2009 FMO
employees would feasibly move on to other positions within fire and be backfilled by younger
employees since the average age of new employees in FMO positions is 45.5 years old and
therefore 11.5 years from mandatory retirement age (Section Ex3.1.7.3, Table Ex3.490).
As shown in the figure below, 39.8% of the current 6c covered employees holding permanent
FMO positions will reach mandatory retirement by 2020. This fact, paired with the net attrition
loss shown in Section Ex3.1.7.3 indicates the potential for shortage of permanent FMO
positions in the future.

Final Report
Exhibit 3 – NWFF 51% Workforce Analysis by Position Category
3.1.1.28 Attrition Analysis
Table Ex3.489 below identifies the actual movement of employees over the five fiscal years
covered by this study. The table accounts for movement between the two phases of the study
within the permanent FMO position title, but movement to another position title in fire covers
both phases of the study (i.e., if an employee moves to a Forestry Tech position, that Forestry
Tech position may be in either Phase 1 or Phase 2.). Figure Ex3.101 displays the different
ways that employees can enter and exit FMO positions, as well as the five-year average
number of employees that fit into each type of movement. Figure Ex3.102 displays that the net
five-year average growth of FMO positions is three employees per year. This calculation
coincides with the steady population seen in Table Ex3.489 below.
