Work involves collecting and preparing fossil vertebrates for mounting or scientific study.
Supervision is exercised over laboratory assistants and employees collecting samples in the field.
New, unusual, or complex work situations are almost always referred to a superior for advice. Work is periodically checked for progress and conformance to established policies and requirements. Usually positions that require planning, developing, and coordinating programs and directing fairly large groups of people fall into this category. Work is of a standardized nature that may involve a variety of duties. Analytical thought becomes more important at this level due to increased data and changing situations.
