Surveillance-System Monitor - 379.367-010 - No Handling, No Fingering

We used the SCO and the aptitudes for dexterity to show that there really are not a significant number of jobs for a person limited to light work (six hours of standing/walking), occasional handling, and no fingering. There is more than one to tackle the problem. We look at surveillance-system monitor (DOT 379.367-010) through the O*Net and Occupational Requirements Survey.

Surveillance-system monitor (DOT 379.367-010) belongs to protective service workers, all other (SOC 33-9099) and gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors (SOC 33-9031). We address protective service workers, all other in a separate piece.  Gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors have irregular schedules in 4% of jobs and work less than 40 hours per week in 1% of jobs. Gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors sit continually or almost continually in 48% of jobs; stand continually or almost continually in 4% of jobs; and walk/run continually or almost continually in 6% of jobs. Gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors spend time using hands to handle, control or feel objects, tools, or controls never in 56% of jobs and less than half the time in 17% of jobs. We use the O*NET work context reports to prove the point:

The 2017 Occupational Requirements Survey provides no useful data about the occupational groups of protective service workers, all other (SOC 33-9099) and gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors (SOC 33-9031).

We can check the OOH to determine aggregate job numbers and the typical education/training.

33-9031 Gaming surveillance officers and gaming investigators

Typical Education Needed	High school diploma or equivalent
Work Experience in a Related Occupation	Less than 5 years
Typical On-The-Job Training Needed to Attain Competency	Moderate-term on-the-job training
2016 Employment	10,700

Incumbents have at least some college in 58.3% of jobs.

The Occupational Employment Statistics estimates the occupational group at 10,290.

Gaming surveillance officers and gaming instructors include two DOT codes, sedentary unskilled surveillance-system monitor and the light skilled . Putting together the date from the OOH, O*NET, and ORS, we get 115 jobs as a school crossing-guard in the nation that meet the demands of the limitations and constitute presumptive substantial gainful activity:
