Instructional Lead-In: Often, a Soldier’s complaint stems from not understanding why he or she is flagged. Many Soldiers also do not understand the general purpose of a flagging action. Army Regulation 600-8-2 outlines the policies and procedures that govern Army flagging actions. As a future Human Resources Specialist, you will have the duties and responsibilities to process flagging actions initiated by the Battalion or Company Commander on officers and enlisted Soldiers. Suspension of Favorable Personnel Actions, commonly called "Flags", affects Soldier’s promotions, pay, and personnel actions. It is important that flagging actions are initiated, processed, and finalized in a timely manner.

SECTION III. PRESENTATION

1. Learning Step / Activity 1. Review Suspension of Favorable Personnel Actions.Method of Instruction: Conference / DiscussionInstructor to Student Ratio: 1:28Time of Instruction: 2 hrs, 0 minsMedia: Power Point Presentation

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 1, Para 1-8.

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 1, Para 1-6 and Chapter 2 Para 2-1.

a The Flag function is the responsibility of commanding officers at all levels and the functional responsibility of the brigade (BDE) adjutant (S1), battalion (BN) S1, and MPD. The Suspension of Favorable Personnel Actions (SFPA) is a system developed by the Department of the Army to prevent and/or preclude execution of favorable actions to a Soldier who may be in an unfavorable status (not in good standing).

Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 1, Para 1-9.

b. A DA Form 268 and HR system input will be initiated within 3 working days when a Soldier’s status changes from favorable to unfavorable. Active Flag cases will be reviewed at least monthly. Unit level commanders will review and validate Flag reports monthly. BN level commanders will review and validate all Flags over 6 months old monthly. A Flag will be removed within 3 working days after the Soldier’s status changes from unfavorable to favorable.

Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Para 2-1f(2).

c. Only those with a need to know of a Flag are informed. A person has a need to know only if he or she must have access to knowledge, or possession of the Flag, in order to perform official duties.

Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Paragraphs 2-4, 2-5, & 2-6.

d The effective date of a Flag, unless otherwise specified in this regulation, will be the date that the circumstance(s) requiring the Flag occurred, not the date the Flag was initiated (for example, if the circumstance occurred on the 25th of March, but the

Page 7: CAA2A159 FLAGS€¦ · Web viewIndividual805C-42A-1284 (*) - Prepare Suspension of Favorable Personnel Actions (SFPA) Approved. Note: See POI for Skill, Knowledge and equipment required

7

Flag was not initiated until the 3d of April, the effective date of the Flag would still be the 25th of March).

e. Unless otherwise specified in this regulation, only commanding officers, commandants, an officer/civilian with specific authority to sign For the Commander (for example, BN or higher executive officer, deputy commander, or BN S1), or HQDA general officer principle staff heads or their designee may authenticate a DA Form 268. Failure to counsel within prescribed times does not invalidate the Flag. The Commander, HRC (AHRC–PDV–P) will authenticate adverse action DA Forms 268 or investigation DA Forms 268 initiated by HQDA.

f. The flagging authority, unit commander, or first line supervisor will counsel all Soldiers on active duty, in writing, upon initiation of any Flag within 2 working days unless notification would compromise an ongoing investigation. Soldiers not on active duty will be counseled regarding initiation of a Flag prior to the conclusion of the first training period following the date the Flag was initiated. Counseling should include reason for the Flag, requirement for Flag removal, and action prohibited by the Flag. All flagged Soldiers will be provided a copy of the DA Form 268 when the Flag is initiated and when it is removed.

SHOW SLIDE 8: CATEGORIES OF FLAGS

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Para 2-1g(1&2). Explain the categories of flags to students.

g. Non-transferable. The flag may no t be transferred to another unit (except where consistent with Para 2-8.)

Note. Soldiers with nontransferable Flags may be reassigned on a case-by-case basis when the Soldier’s personnel management division at HRC or other

component headquarters directs the transfer. Note: See AR 600-8-2, Para 2-1a(2)

h. Transferable. The flag m a y be transferred to another unit. The losing command is responsible for providing the gaining command with Flag supporting documents for Soldiers with transferable Flags (DA Form 268 initiating Flag, weight control packet, DA Form 705 (Army Physical Fitness Test Scorecard), DA Form 4856 (Developmental Counseling Form), and so forth).

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Para 2-1c.

i. Flags are not to be used for punishment or restriction, but only as an administrative tool. The Flag is not the final disposition. A Flag is emplaced during some type of disciplinary or administrative action until that action is concluded.

SHOW SLIDE 9: NON-TRANSFERABLE FLAGS

j. The following is a list of circumstances requiring a nontransferable Flag. The specific actions or investigations listed below require initiation of a nontransferable Flag (see table 2–1). More than one Flag may be required concurrently.

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Para 2-2. Instructor have students follow along as you explain the different types of non-transferable flags.

SHOW SLIDE 10: TRANSFER ABLE FLAGS EXAMPLES

NOTE: Refer students to AR 600-8-2, Chapter 2, Para 2-3(a-c). Instructor have students follow along as you explain the different types of transferable flags.

The following is a list of circumstances requiring a transferable flag:

1. Punishment Phase. Initiate a Flag when actions resulting from a court-martial, non-judicial punishment, or punishment from a civil court have moved into the punishment phase and punishment does not include confinement, restraint, or geographical travel restrictions imposed by civilian courts as a condition of parole, probation, or suspended sentence as provided for in AR 27–10. Commanders will initiate a ―Punishment Phase ‖ Flag when the punishment period is 1 month or longer and will remove the ―Adverse Action‖ Flag the same day unless additional adverse action is pending. Remove Flag upon completion of punishment.

2. Army Physical Fitness Test failure” Initiate a Flag when a Soldier fails a record APFT or when through the Soldier’s fault as determined by the commander, the Soldier fails to take the APFT within the time prescribed by existing regulations, or when directed by the commanding officer (as provided for in AR 350–1). A Flag is not required for a Soldier who has a permanent or temporary profile that precludes taking the APFT or is unable to undergo an APFT because of conditions beyond the Soldier’s control (as determined by the commander).

3. The Army Body Composition Program. The effective date of the Flag is the date that the Soldier was found to be in noncompliance with AR 600–9. The use of certain medication to treat an underlying medical disorder or the inability to perform all aerobic events may contribute to weight gain but are not considered sufficient justification for noncompliance with AR 600–9 and the Soldier will be flagged. Soldiers will not be exempt because of chronic medical conditions unless an exception to enrollment in the Army Body Composition Program (ABCP) is granted by the DCS, G–1. Reference AR 600-9, Para 3-5a, while enrolled, Soldiers will be provided exercise guidance by the unit master fitness trainer and/or unit fitness training NCO in accordance with FM 7–22; nutrition counseling by registered dietitian (or health care provider). Reference AR 600-9, Para 3-13b, Commanders and supervisors will remove individuals administratively from the ABCP as soon as the body fat standard is achieved. Soldiers that meet the screening table weight must remain in the ABCP program until they no longer exceed the required body fat standard.

NOTE TO INTRUCTOR: Refer to AR 600-8-2 para 2-8

Rules for Transferring a FLAG:

a. The losing command is responsible for providing the gaining command with Flag supporting documents for Soldiers with transferable Flags (DA Form 268 initiating Flag, weight control packet, DA Form 705 (Army Physical Fitness Test Scorecard), DA Form4856 (Developmental Counseling Form), and so Forth).

b. W hen a flagged Soldier is reassigned, the responsibility to manage the flagging action transfers to the gaining commander.

c. Normally, Soldiers with ―open Flag cases are not reassigned unless otherwise allowed in this regulation.

d. Soldiers with nontransferable Flags may be reassigned on a case-by-case basis when the Soldier’s personnel management division at HRC or other component headquarters directs the transfer provided that, at the minimum, the Following provisions are met:

(1) The losing command is willing to let the Soldier depart.

(2) The gaining command is willing to accept the flagged individual.

(3) All administrative actions (such as rebuttals to pending actions and directedAMHRR filings) have been accomplished.

It is the commander’s responsibility to review this report monthly. A flag on a Soldier’s record prevents them from receiving any kind of favorable actions. For example, an erroneous flag on a Soldier could not only cause him or her to be promoted late, but would also cause the Soldier to miss out on an immediate increase in pay. In return, the Soldier’s morale could decrease as well as that of the entire unit. When viewing this report, commanders should pay close attention to the following:

1. Name of the Soldier2. Reason for the flag transaction3. Effective Date of transaction4. Whether the flag transaction was closed (when applicable)

NOTE: Instruct students to view the Suspension of Favorable Personnel Actions Management Report and note changes due to processed eMILPO transactions.
