Air Force supervisors are responsible for providing counseling and feedback to the Airmen they supervise. Part of this is ensuring Airmen are equipped with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions in both their professional and personal lives.
Supervisors and Airmen should use the new Air Force Compensation Fact Sheet to accomplish this. The fact sheet provides information on benefits, entitlements and opportunities available in an Air Force career.
“The Air Force Compensation Fact Sheet is a valuable tool to use as you talk to Airmen who are on the fence about reenlisting,“ said Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force Rodney J. McKinley. “Some choose to separate from our Air Force and don’t thoroughly understand the benefits they will be losing. This is about our #2 priority—developing and caring for Airmen and their families. Please encourage all Airmen to use this fact sheet.“
Here are some things to remember about the Air Force Compensation Fact Sheet:
- The fact sheet includes information on everything from pay, allowances and leave to educational benefits, retirement pay and post-service benefits
- In accordance with AFI 36-2618, The Enlisted Force Structure, supervisors should review and provide the fact sheet to their subordinates after every counseling session. Remember, at a minimum, counseling occurs in conjunction with performance feedback or when an Airman comes up for quality review under the selective reenlistment program
- The fact sheet contains Web links associated with each topic that provide additional valuable information
