OVERVIEW SAN RAMON VALLEY FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
I. PERFORMANCE BASED SYSTEM
The San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District Employee Development Program is a “performance based” system. This system is one in which the primary criteria for qualification is individual performance as observed by an evaluator using approved standards. The Employee Development Program utilizes Position Task Books as the primary tool for observing and evaluating performance. They contain the “approved standards” in the form of tasks, which have been established by industry standards.
Position Task Books have been developed for designated positions within the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District. Each position task book lists the performance requirements (tasks) for the specific position in a format that allows a probationary Firefighter or trainee to be evaluated against written guidelines.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Position task books are designed with a specific focus on a particular position, and therefore contain a narrower set of skills and knowledge than may be necessary to be successful in that position. As a result, each position task book includes a presumption that the probationary firefighter or trainee has the requisite knowledge of the position prior to the position task book being initiated.
II. USE OF THE POSITION TASK BOOK
The position task book is to be used during completion of the employee’s probationary period (the probationary process) to verify the employee’s performance meets the requirements of the position.
III. TIME FRAME FOR COMPLETING THE POSITION TASK BOOK
Completion of the position task book is required one month prior to the end of the trainee’s probation period.
