It is understood and agreed that a minimum of ____% of the employee's time will be allocated for carrying out the duties and the employee's primary duties workload will be adjusted accordingly. Additional time for the performance of duties may be necessary for special programs or projects (i.e., preparation of annual civil rights work plans, etc.) and will be allocated by agreement between the employee, immediate supervisor, and Forest Supervisor. It is further understood that while performing collateral duties, the normal supervisor/employee relationship does not exist and the incumbent reports directly and is accountable to the Forest Supervisor for the Federal Women's Program portion of their responsibilities. A work plan and accomplishment report for the Forest FWP will be developed (generally on a fiscal year basis). The incumbent will periodically brief the Forest Supervisor and staff on matters relating to program accomplishment and failures to assure accomplishment of FWP goals. It is further understood that while performing these collateral duties, the employee will notify the immediate supervisor before leaving his/her primary assigned duties and will keep the supervisor informed of his/her whereabouts and estimated time of return to primary duties. It is in this respect the normal supervisor/employee relationship continues. It is further understood that all necessary absences away from the primary duty work location for the purposes of developing work plans, meetings, programs, training, etc., will be scheduled, as much as possible, in advance through immediate supervisor and other necessary administrative approval will be obtained as appropriate. It is in this respect the normal supervisor/employee relationship continues. It is further understood that a statement of differences, a training plan, and the collateral duty program manager performance element are completed with this memorandum of understanding. The employee will attend an OPM session, "Federal Women's Program Manager Workshop" and Region 1's course, "Role of Supervisors and Managers in EEO" during the next 6 months.
