2. SELECTION OF MAINTENANCE SUPERVISORS
The program for developing candidates and incumbent supervisors should be developed using
a systematic approach. Using a systematic approach for the development of training programs
for maintenance supervisors should improve the quality of supervision and employee
performance. The selection of maintenance supervisors should be a careful and thoughtful
process that recognizes the responsibilities unique to the maintenance supervisor position.
Maintenance supervisors are those personnel who, as their primary job function, have direct
responsibility and authority for assigning jobs, overseeing and directing maintenance activities,
and coaching or correcting maintenance craft personnel.
2.1 Education and Experience
Educational and experience requirements should be consistent with those stipulated in DOE
Orders and in other applicable regulatory documents. As a minimum, a high school education
or General Education Development (GED) equivalent is recommended for entry into the
maintenance supervisor training program. Educational achievements should be reviewed as
part of the selection process for identifying prospective maintenance supervisors. Educational
weaknesses directly related to job responsibilities should be corrected through appropriate
training.
2.2 Evaluation and Selection of Maintenance Supervisors
The process for selecting employees for promotion to a maintenance supervisory position
should include an evaluation of the employee's behaviors that demonstrates potential
supervisory skills and characteristics. Senior line managers and incumbents (who best
understand the job) should establish criteria defining those skills and characteristics that are
expected of maintenance supervisors. The criteria should include demonstrated qualities such
as leadership, judgment, motivation, integrity, supervisory skills, and teamwork skills, as well as
technical competence. Selection of maintenance supervisor candidates should include
consideration of the following characteristics as described by the associated attributes:
Leadership and supervisory capabilities
assumes responsibility and accountabilities of the maintenance supervisor
supports and is knowledgeable of facility policies and maintenance philosophies
displays initiative and motivational skills
communicates and reinforces expectations, and interacts with personnel
demonstrates administrative and organizational abilities
demonstrates ability for coaching skills, including critical assessment of craft performance
has potential to assume further responsibilities
is a role model for maintaining high standards
Thorough technical knowledge
has working knowledge of the tasks performed by the personnel supervised
demonstrates the ability to recognize unexpected or off-normal conditions
