MANPOWER MANAGERS AND
ADVISORS
Manpower managers exercise control of manpower
resources. Because of the high costs of personnel and
the difficulty in providing skilled personnel to meet
requirements, manpower requirements must be
minimized. Therefore, effective control of manpower
resources is mandatory to achieve the best use. To
achieve this control within the Navy, manpower
managers use classification systems that clearly define
manpower requirements and the related personnel
qualifications.
