How are recruiters authorized to recoup costs associated with their duties?

Recruiters are authorized to recoup costs associated with their duties through the Out-Of-Pocket Expense Program. This program specifically allows recruiters to cover expenses that they incur while carrying out their recruiting responsibilities, such as travel, meals, and other related expenses that are necessary for their job performance. The program helps ensure that recruiters are not financially burdened by costs that are essential to fulfilling their role in attracting and enlisting new personnel into the Air Force.

This system is designed to streamline the reimbursement process and provide recruiters with a clear method to submit claims for the reasonable, necessary expenses incurred while performing their official duties. By using the Out-Of-Pocket Expense Program, recruiters have the assurance that their expenses will be recognized and reimbursed appropriately, enabling them to focus more on their primary function of recruitment rather than worrying about out-of-pocket expenditures.
