Employee Handbook

Navigation

This employee guide provides information for individuals who have been selected for employment overseas with the U.S. Army in Europe—information for pre-employment processing, relocation overseas, and general employee information.

Within this document, individuals will see information regarding pre-employment processing, relocation tips, living conditions after arrival, and specific employment information as it applies to the overseas environment.

Positions located in overseas areas are commonly referred to as Outside the Continental United States or "OCONUS" positions; those located within the United States are commonly referred to as the Continental United States or "CONUS" positions. It is important that individuals are familiar with these acronyms--many regulations use them.

Each community is serviced by a Civilian Personnel Advisory Center (CPAC), and these offices are the best source of information on employment-related issues such as benefits and entitlements, tour lengths, return placement options, etc.; questions should be directed to the servicing CPAC unless otherwise indicated in this guide.

The CPAC Homepages provide more information on each individual U.S. Army in Europe CPAC.
