About The Position

Store Workers serve in one or more commissary store departments, such as grocery, produce, or warehouse. They perform a variety of duties involved in receiving, handling, marking, preparing, displaying, and maintaining resale stock. The work includes maintaining adequate inventory, identifying obvious spoilage, damage, and out-of-date merchandise, receiving supplies and equipment, using a computer system to calculate prices and weights, and transporting items to shelving and display areas.

Applicants must meet the stated conditions of federal employment, including U.S. citizenship or nationality, minimum age requirements, and applicable Selective Service registration. The position may require verification of identity and employment eligibility, a suitability or fitness determination, fingerprinting, background investigation and clearance eligibility, and a probationary or trial period. Direct deposit is required. The job has physical requirements involving prolonged standing, stooping, kneeling, bending, and climbing, as well as handling loads up to 40 pounds independently and occasionally heavier items with assistance.

Qualifications are assessed based on demonstrated ability and potential to perform the work, rather than the length of time spent in the occupation. Relevant experience may include caring for grocery resale items, locating products for customers, rotating and stacking stock, participating in inventories, operating computer systems to calculate prices and label merchandise, and arranging stock on shelves and displays. Education may not be used to qualify. Applicants are evaluated using job elements that include working without more than normal supervision, dexterity and safe work practices, interpreting instructions, knowledge of materials, and technical practice.
