REPORT BY THE                                                   LWOW


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Development Of The Classification

Standard For Flight Service

Station Specialists



The former Civil Service Commission de-
veloped classification standards for air traffic
controllers and flight service station special-
ists from 1976 to 1978.

The standard for flight service station special-
ists, issued shortly after the standard for air
traffic controllers, was criticized by officials
of the Department of Transportation and an
employee union. The union believed that the
Commission's handling of the flight service
station specialists' case was improper and in-
consistent, compared with the air traffic con-
trollers' case.


GAO concludes that the Commission's Stand-
ards Division acted consistently in develop-
ing the standard and generally followed nor-
mal procedures. Although it was not routine
for Commissioners to get involved in the
classification process, it was within their
authority to intervene directly in the decision-
making process and overrule or sustain the
Standards Division's actions.
