All  tasked  projects  are  normally  assigned  a  project number and labor expended on a specific project will be   reported   under   that   project’s   number   (fig.1-5). Included under direct labor, besides construction, are such  tasks  as: Project  and  site  surveying. Shop  work  that  contributes  directly  to  the completion  of  the  project, Camp  Maintenance  when  accomplished  as  part of  the  battalion  direct  labor  tasking  such  as  Emergency Service  Requests  (ESRs),  Standing  Job  Orders,  and Specific  Job  Orders. Mineral products operations for either a tasked project or as a specific or as a specific tasked project. Construction   equipment   operation   when assigned to a tasked project. INDIRECT LABOR includes all labor required to support  construction  operations  but  does  not  usually produce an end product itself. Therefore, this time is not  reported  under  a  project  number  but  under  an indirect labor code, as shown in figure 1-5. READINESS  and  TRAINING  comprises  all manpower expended in actual military operations, unit embarkation, and planning and preparations necessary to ensure  the  military  and  mobile  readiness  of  the  unit. Also includes attendance at service schools, factory and industrial  courses,  fleet-level  training,  military  training, and organized training conducted within the battalion or  unit.  Report  or  record  these  man-hours  under  a specific name such as MIL/OPS, Embark, or GMT. Your  report  will  be  submitted  on  a  typical  daily time  card  form,  like  the  one  shown  in  the  Naval Construction   Force   Crew   Leader’s   Handbook (NCF/CLH).  The  form  provides  a  breakdown  by man-hours of the activities in the various labor codes for  each  crew  member  for  each  day  on  any  given project.  This  form  is  reviewed  at  the  company  level by  the  staff  and  platoon  commander,  and  then  it  is initialed   by   the   company   commander   before   it   is forwarded to the operations department. It is tabulated by  the  management  division  of  the  operations department,   along   with   all   of   the   daily   labor distribution reports received from each company and department in the unit. The crew leader will prepare a daily account of all man-hours expended on a time card form, like the one shown in figure 1-4. The time cards can be submitted daily to the project manager or can be kept until the “two week” labor summuary report is due. Once you complete this two week report, this will help you in preparing your SITREPs.   This   report   is   the   means   by   which   the operations office analyzes the labor distribution of total manpower  resources  for  each  day.  It  also  serves  as feeder   information   for   preparation   of   the   monthly OPS/SITREP  reports  and  any  other  source  reports required of the unit. This information must be accurate and  timely.  Each  level  in  the  company  organization should  review  the  report  for  an  analysis  of  its  own internal  construction  management  and  performance. SAFETY  PROGRAM As an individual and a petty officer, you must be familiar with the safety program at your activity. You cannot  function  effectively  as  a  petty  officer  unless you are aware of how safety fits into this program. You should   know   who   (or   what   group)   arbitrates   and establishes   the   safety   policies   and   procedures   you must  follow.  You  should  also  know  who  provides INDIRECT LABOR. This category includes all labor required to support construction operations but which does not produce an end product itself.
