Spouse employment preference is a preference for employment in
DOD appropriated fund civilian positions for which the military spouse is best
qualified at grade levels GS-1 through GS/GM-15 (or equivalent wage system
positions). Preference for NAFI positions is at grades UA-8 and below
(and equivalent positions) and for those jobs paid at an hourly
rate. Depending on qualifications and experience, the spouse is
afforded serious consideration for competitive civil service
vacancies.
If the spouse has previous government work experience,
preference can be exercised up to the highest grade level ever
held. Spouses of active duty military personnel of the DOD with
personal civil service status (i.e. current career or career-conditional
employees, reinstatement eligible) should apply to the Human Resource Office for
available positions. The Human Resource Office (HRO) and Morale
Welfare and Recreation are the on-base employers. If you are
interested in civil service positions, contact the Human Resources Employment
Office.
