III. Job Characteristics Descriptions
3.1 Job Complexity

The work involves preparing standardizations, designing and improving new working systems considering national, continental, and international dynamic situations; ensuring that the legal frameworks, documents, formats, and forms prepared for delivering the institution's services align with international recommendations, the country's policies and strategies, proclamations and regulations of institutions in the country, foreign policies and laws of various countries, and the cultural values of the society.

The work coordinates the design and implementation of service delivery strategies and standards by assessing national and international opportunities and pressures to prepare frameworks, directives, and manuals; coordinates and ensures the preparation of a model Citizens' Charter framework and a standardized service delivery preparation and implementation manual.

Complexity arises during work execution from the inability to find baseline or reference documents suitable for the institutional work nature when preparing institutional working systems and standards; and dealing with the constant changes in foreign policies, laws, and political situations of various countries to ensure procedures and standards are prepared in a way that safeguards national interests and national security.

Overcoming these challenges is done by standardizing various international recommendations and standards, preparing Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) and Bilateral, Multilateral, and Unilateral Agreement documents to work cooperatively with internal and external stakeholders and partners, and creating consultation forums to reach mutual understanding and implementation.

3.2 Working Independently

3.2.1 Framework in which the work is performed:

The work is carried out based on international standards, policies, and strategies; proclamations and regulations; and memorandums of understanding and agreement documents.

3.2.2 Level of monitoring and support required:

The work is evaluated by the supervisor based on reports regarding its proper execution in terms of research outcomes, institutional changes brought about by the prepared working systems and standards, customer satisfaction levels achieved, national benefits secured, and national security risks reduced.

3.3 Accountability

3.3.1 Accountability for Work Results:

The work demands accountability for planning, evaluating, and assessing the section's work; establishing and improving new working systems; preparing, improving, and implementing working systems and standards that meet international standards, consider dynamic situations, and align with the country's development, good governance, human rights, policies, and strategies.

It requires planning, coordinating, directing, supporting, and providing feedback on activities; tailoring service delivery strategies, frameworks, directives, and manual standards to align with the objective realities of the institutions; establishing a system to review and register service standards based on the model Citizens' Charter, service standards, and Citizens' Charter preparation criteria; establishing a system for prompt response to grievances and complaints regarding service delivery, ensuring problems are identified and resolved through research, and establishing an accountability system while coordinating, monitoring, and ensuring their effectiveness.

If the work is not performed as planned or if timely corrective measures are not taken for errors created during implementation, service recipients will lose trust in the service provider; citizens' holistic participation will decrease; a lack of good governance will lead to anarchy; which will negatively impact the achievement of the institution's goals.

3.3.2 Accountability for Confidential Information:

If information under the section and services provided are inappropriately passed to third parties, it will negatively impact the country's image, economic support the country should receive, the aviation and tourism industries, as well as national interests and security; it will expose the country to terrorists; cause economic damage; and cause other countries, governmental and non-governmental organizations, continental and international organizations, and the public to lose trust in the institution.

3.4 Creativity

The work requires generating and brainstorming new ideas and devising alternative problem-solving strategies to effectively design and implement strategies, frameworks, directives, manuals, and standards that help prepare the institution's service standards and Citizens' Charter, making service delivery efficient and accessible to create customer satisfaction.

3.5 Work Communication

3.5.1 Type and Level of Communication:

Internally requires communicating with immediate supervisors, employees, and other work unit managers. Externally, it requires communicating with regional and city administration civil and family registration branch heads, branch office heads, land and air border administration heads, consulate and checkpoint coordinators; leaders of governmental and non-governmental organizations; and team leaders of continental and international organizations.

3.5.2 Purpose of Communication:

To receive, give, and direct work instructions; to evaluate and provide feedback on whether the prepared working systems and standards are implemented and to work together; to strengthen support and cooperation and reach mutual understanding; to give and receive information, and to collaborate on technical tasks.

3.5.3 Frequency of Communication:

The frequency of communication takes up to 40% of the daily working hours.

3.6 Responsibility

3.7 Effort

3.7.1 Mental Effort:

The work demands skills in planning, directing, and coordinating the section's tasks, as well as preparing working systems and standards that meet international standards, monitoring their implementation, evaluating, and providing feedback. This makes it mentally exhausting, taking up 80% of the daily working time.

3.7.2 Psychological Effort:

The work requires withstanding the attitudinal and psychological pressure created by ensuring new procedures are accepted and put into operation at the desired speed.

3.7.3 Visual Effort:

Reading and deeply evaluating prepared institutional working systems, standards, policies, and agreement documents and providing feedback; reading and writing various documents presented for consultation forums; and reading and evaluating compiled best practices are visually exhausting tasks, taking up to 80% of the working time.
