SUBJ: CHANGE TO THE OFFICER EVALUATION SYSTEM (OES)
A. PERSONNEL MANUAL, COMDTINST M1000.6 (SERIES)
1. THIS MSG ANNOUNCES AN IMPORTANT CHANGE TO THE OES.  THE
REPORTED-ON OFFICERS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (SSN) FOUND IN BLOCK 1
OF THE OFFICER EVALUATION REPORT (OER) (CG-5310A, B, C, AND D
VERSION 10/06) WILL BE REPLACED WITH THE EMPLOYEE IDENTIFICATION
NUMBER (EMPLID).
2.  EFFECTIVE 1 JAN 2008 THE EMPLID SHALL BE USED IN SECTION 1.B OF
THE OER AND THE SSN WILL NO LONGER BE AUTHORIZED. USING THE EMPLID
WILL BETTER PROTECT AN OFFICERS PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE
INFORMATION. SWITCHING FROM THE SSN TO AN EMPLID REQUIRED THE CG-
5310 SERIES TO BE MODIFIED SO THE FORMS WILL ONLY ACCOMMODATE THE
7-DIGIT EMPLID.  ONLY SECTION 1.B OF THE CG-5310 SERIES HAS CHANGED
AND IT WILL READ "EMPLID" VICE "SSN".  OTHERWISE THE CG-5310 SERIES
HAS NOT CHANGED.
3.  THE UPDATED VERSION OF ALL CG-5310 FORMS WILL BE AVAILABLE IN
THE ADOBE FORMS LIBRARY.  TISCOM AND COMDT (CG-61) WILL UPDATE THE
LOCALLY INSTALLED VERSION OF ADOBE FORMS TO INCLUDE THE UPDATED
FORMS WITH A PROJECTED AVAILABILITY DATE ON OR ABOUT 1 JAN 2008.
UNTIL THE ADOBE FORMS LIBRARY IS UPDATED, UNITS CAN ACCESS THESE
FORMS VIA THE INTRANET:
HTTP://CGWEB2.COMDT.USCG.MIL/CGFORMS/WELCOME.HTM OR VIA THE
INTERNET: HTTP://WWW.USCG.MIL/FORMS/. OFFICERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO
USE ONE OF THESE METHODS WHEN PREPARING AN OER.  THIS WILL ENSURE
THAT THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF THE CG-5310 IS BEING USED.
4.  THE NEXT UPDATE TO REF A WILL REFLECT THE CHANGE DESCRIBED IN
THIS MSG.
5. COMMANDS ARE HIGHLY ENCOURAGED TO PROVIDE WIDEST DISSEMINATION
TO ALL ACTIVE DUTY AND RESERVE OFFICERS AND TO CIVILIAN RATING
CHAIN MEMBERS.
6.  POC: CDR CHANEY, CGPC-OPM-3, (202) 493-1651, CHIEF, OFFICER
EVALUATIONS BRANCH.
7. INTERNET RELEASE AUTHORIZED.
8. REAR ADMIRAL CLIFFORD I. PEARSON, ASSISTANT COMMANDANT FOR HUMAN
RESOURCES, SENDS.
