DEFINITIONS.
a.
TEMAC is defined as voluntary, full-time duty of a temporary nature under 10 U.S.C. 672
for purposes other than training or Reserve Program projects.
b.
Nonconsecutive TEMAC is temporary active duty performed in separate increments of 1
or more days at a time. This type of duty is scheduled under mutual agreement between
the requesting command and the Reservist. Orders must specify dates when periods of
nonconsecutive active duty will begin and end. When using nonconsecutive TEMAC, the
Reservist is paid only for those days when duty is performed (partial days are not
authorized). Also, nonconsecutive days cannot be combined in order to qualify for pay
benefits that the Reservist would otherwise not be entitled to (e.g., VHA).
c.
FTE is defined as full-time equivalent and is a measure of work years/days allotted or
used.
TEMAC FTE limitations for area, district, maintenance and logistics commands, and
Headquarters offices are listed in enclosure (1).
d.
Issuing Authorities are defined as those commands authorized to issue TEMAC orders.
The district commander is the designated issuing authority for TEMAC orders for the
district in which a Reservist is assigned. Normally this is the district in which a Reservist
resides. However, the servicing PERSRU is the designated issuing authority for additional
TEMAC when there is no break in service.
