Each inventory is a comprehensive list of work activities, responsibilities, educational courses, machines, tools, equipment, and work aids used and the products produced or services rendered in a designated occupational area. The inventories can be used to set up work programs, write lob descriptions, or be given to workers to check appropriate items in a self-inventory of their work. The information collected by use of the inventories may be helpful to job developers, counselors, and training and placement personnel. It also may be used in the development of curriculums for vocational or apprenticeship training. Occupations covered in this inventory series include aircraft and aerospace manufacturing: building and construction trades: chemical processing: economics and political science work: electrical equipment, apparatus, and devices manufacturing: electronic components, equipment, and apparatus manufacturing: plastics manufacturing: food processing; history, sociology, and anthropology work: instruments and apparatus manufacturing: knitting mill work: library work: logging: paper and paperboard converting: petroleum refining: sawmill and planning mill work: ship and boat building and repairing: textile mill work; veneer and plywood mill work: woodworking.

Harold Stone of the California State University, Los Ator,vles. primary objective of the research was to investigate and determine the co Ll and effectiveness of varisitechniques and procedures of collect- ing job analysis data. As a result, HMS has as a nucleus an organization of standardized tasks found in a particular activity or area of work. Manpower program staffers have used Series I for purposes such as identifying tasks, developing jobs, and preparing job descriptions; providing information to counselees and traineeson specific tasks associated with different kinds of work; and developing training programs fostering entrance into fields of work that offer maximum employment opportunities. Task Analysis Inventorieswas produced by the U.S. Employment Service, Division of Occupa- tional Analysis. Adaline Padgett of the Division provided planning and technical cou.tlination. Carl E. Wesson, Occupational Analyst, California Occupational Field Center (J. Edmond Phillips, Super- visor), drafted the document.

Data were obtained from job analysis studies, currently published occupational literature, professional associations, trade unions, and public and private sector organizations and establishmentJ. The inventory is a -omprehensive list of work activities, responsibilities, educational courses, machines, tools, equipment, and work aids used and the products produced or services rendered in a designated area. The user, after considering all of the items listed call determine those tha are applicable. This is the second in a series of inven- tories to be developed for designated areas in the economy. Additional inventories will be developed and published in the future. The inventories can be adapted to meet the various needs of work programs. For ex- ample, the user may become familiar with the lists of tasks in advance of a study then use the items as a guide to interviewing workers, supervisors, personnel management staff, or 11 others from whom the user is obtaining job information. In some cases, the inventories nay be given to workers to check appropriate items in a self-inventory of the work they perform. The information resulting from use of the inventories may have relevance in activities other than basic job analysis. The inventories offer a quick m^thod for preparation of job descriptions or assessing the need for, or feasibility of, job restructuring without under- taking detailed job analysis studies. If restructuring is performed, the items from the list I may then serve as the framework for task identification and analysis. the basis for job re- structuring. Information collected from both the lists of tasks (activities) and the lists of machines, tools, equipment and work aids can be used to determine abilities and knowledges required for a specific job, which must be considered in the development of curriculums for vocational or apprenticeship training. Tho categories relating to educational requirements and courses that would develop workers' skills for performing the job duties, licensing requirements, rAnd other similar information will be of assistance to counselors, job developers, training, and placement personnel. For the lists to reflect complete information about the job, the users should always be encouraged to write in additional tasks or other pertinent items. Users should also be cautioned to analyze jobs as they exist and not attempt to make them fit the items. ARRANGEMENT OF THE INVENTORIES The task statements are not limited to nay level of performanc- and may include ac- tivities that range from high-level supervision to elementary work. Some types of work exist in many fields of endeavor. Separate inventories have been prepared to represent these universal tasks (activities), such as "Administrative and Management" and "Clerical" (series I). In addition, many professional disciplines, such as Engineers, Economists, Mathematicians, and Scientists are utilized in both the public and private sectors. TASK ANALYSIS INVENTORIES have been, or are being, prepared for these disciplines such as "ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING WORK" (seriesI), "MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICAL SCIENCES WORK" (series I) and "PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH." The tasks, as well as additional items on the lists, are not arranged in alphabetical or chronological order, so the user will need to read and consider all the items. 5 Procedures for Completing Inventory Items StepI.Select the task invontor, which is pertinent to the job being studied. Step 2. Prepare a copy of each of the pages for the appropriate area of work. Step 3. Indicate in the tipper right hand corner of the first page of the selected inventory the title(s) by which the job is cominonly known. Step 4. Read each of the items listed on the inventory. Step 5.Indicate by an "X" in the box on the right of the line for each item, those that arc pertinent to the job being studied. Step 6. Write in additional items or tasks found in the job but not listed in the inventory.

  • Conifer Pruning EB1984
    EB1984 Donald P. Hanley, Ph.D. Stephen Reutebuch, M.S. Conifer Pruning Conifer pruning is the practice of removing the lower branches from live green conifer trees. Without pruning, the lower branches on conifers, such as Douglas-fir, western larch, and ponderosa pine, may persist for up to 80 years. The primary objective of pruning for wood quality improvement is to produce a small, uniform knotty core throughout the length of the pruned bole so that clear wood volume will be maximized. Achieving this objective may result in increased financial returns to the landowner when the trees are harvested. There are many other benefits from pruning, even if clear wood production or financial concerns are of secondary importance. These include: • Increased understory vegetation for wildlife. As young stands are thinned and the dominant and co-dominant trees are pruned, more light will reach the forest floor, resulting in increased grass, herb, and shrub vegetation over time. This new vegetation often attracts wildlife as forage, browse, and hiding cover. • Reduced fuel ladders. A “fuel-ladder” is the pathway that a fire can travel from the forest floor up to the tree canopy. Unpruned trees in unthinned stands have many low branches that can increase the probability of a fire getting into the tree crowns. Once the fire is in the crown, the likelihood of tree death is high and the probability of rapid fire spread increases. • Reduced incidence of disease. For some diseases, such as the introduced blister rust in white pine, pruning is a primary weapon in reducing the disease spread as blister rust fungi enters the tree through its needles near the ground.
