Reservist Member Responsibility

1. KEEP CONTACT INFORMATION CURRENT – Direct Access This is how the SECTOR will contact you in the event of a recall.  It is extremely important that you keep your contact information current at all times.  SECJAX Active Duty Command has NO tolerance for members with outdated or missing DA contact information.
   
   DA can be accessed from your home computer.
   https://ep.direct-access.us/psp/UCGP1PP/?cmd=login&languageCd=ENG&
   
   Self Service/Employee/Tasks:
   
   Email Addresses:
   Business:  Put you uscg.mil address (or dhs.gov) here.  Due to security purposes, we are no longer allowed to enter 2 addresses separated by a semicolon.  If you have two email addresses separated by a semi-colon here, please remove the non-uscg address.  DA automatically sends e-mails to this address. (TA, forgotten password, etc)
   
   Home: Put your primary email address here.  This is an address where you can be most likely reached during a recall or in order to receive important, time sensitive information.  If you check your ‘civilian’ work (non-USCG) email more often than your home email, put your ‘civilian’ work (non-USCG) email here.
   
   Other: Not required.  If you have an email address for work (non-USCG) and one for home, put the one that you check less often here.  This may be an email address that you check while you are at ‘home’!
   
   Emergency Contacts
   
   Home and Mailing Address
   
   Phone Numbers:
   Add Home, Cell, Business phone numbers. The "Other Phone" field will be used in the event of a Hurricane Recall. Please select 'Other Phone' from the drop down and type the phone number of a relative or friend that resides in a geographically different location than you. This is in the event phone lines go down in your area. Type the phone number (without dashes) and add the words "out of area contact" Example: “568 940 5678 out of area contact”
2. Annual Screening Questionnaire (ASQ) – Direct Access The required completion date for the ASQ is 31 October of every year.
   
   *** Reservists must complete the ASQ annually between 01 August and 31 October.***
   
   SELRES members who fail to complete and submit an ASQ are considered unsatisfactory participants. Commands shall ensure that members are in compliance before scheduling and approving ADT Orders.
   
   DA can be accessed from your home computer.

3. Individual Medical Readiness – Per COMDTINST M6150.3, assessing Individual Medical Readiness (IMR) is a continuous process and must be monitored and reported on a regular basis to provide service leaders and commanders the ability to ensure a healthy and fit fighting force ready to deploy. IMR consists of six elements: Individual Medical Equipment (IME), Immunizations, Readiness Laboratory Studies, Dental Readiness, Deployment Limiting Conditions (DLC) and Periodic Health Assessments (PHA).
   
   It is the personal responsibility of each member of the Coast Guard active duty and reserve community to maintain their medical readiness levels at all times, including making and keeping their PHA and Dental appointment and maintaining their current vaccination requirements. Information regarding how to obtain your Periodic Health Assessment, Dental Screening and vaccinations can be found on the Medical Section of this website.
   
   Failure to comply with medical readiness requirements will result in supervisor notification, counseling and possible negative page 7, placement into Individual Readiness Reserves (IRR) and/or discharge.
   
   
4. WEIGH-INS - April & October
   If you can not weigh-in during April or October drill weekend, you will need to make arrangements with SECJAX Active Duty Admin Personnel prior to the end of the weigh-in month to be weighed in.  Personnel who fail to weigh in prior to the end of the applicable weigh in month (April/October), shall be counseled and issued a negative Page 7.
   
   
5. IDP - Complete Individual Development Plan
   This is mandatory for enlisted: E-6 and below and officers: O4 and below.

7. ADT – You will need to submit a request in Direct Access for ADT orders to your supervisor at least 45 days in advance.
   
   IMPORTANT!!!  This is NOT intuitive:  Clicking the “ROUTE” button makes the screen blink and gives you the impression that your orders have been routed.  WRONG!!!  Nothing has happened.  You MUST hit “SAVE” after you click “ROUTE” to actually get your orders routed.
   
   ”Click the button to submit your request.”
