What is Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay (HDIP) and who is entitled to receive it?
Answer
Service Members who perform any of the following duties can earn Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay (HDIP):
Parachute Duty
Flight Deck Duty
Demolition Duty
Experimental Stress Duty
Toxic Fuels (or Propellants) Duty
Toxic Pesticides Duty
Dangerous Viruses (or Bacteria) Lab Duty
Chemical Munitions
Maritime Visit, Board, Search and Seizure (VBSS) Duty
Polar Region Flight Operations Duty
The monthly rate for each type of HDIP is $150 with an exception to High Altitude-Low Opening (HALO) parachute jumps. Service members performing HALO jumps will receive $225 per month for HALO jumps. Note that only one type of parachute duty payment (regular or HALO) is authorized per qualifying period, and the higher of the two payments will be made.
A Service Member can receive up to two different types of HDIPs during the same period if he/she performs more than one of these duties as required by the mission. HDIP begins on the day the member reports for duty and ceases on the termination date published in the orders or when the member is no longer required to perform the hazardous duty, whichever occurs first. The HDIP entitlement(s) will be prorated based on the number of days the member spends performing these duties during the a month.

MANDATORY NOTICE AND CONSENT PROVISION FOR ALL DOD INFORMATION SYSTEM USER AGREEMENTS
By clicking the Consent button on the prior page to enter the system, you acknowledge:
You are accessing a U.S. Government (USG) information system (IS)
(which includes any device attached to this information system) that is
provided for U.S. Government-authorized use only.
You consent to the following conditions
The U.S. Government routinely intercepts and monitors
communications on this information system for purposes including,
but not limited to, penetration testing, communications security
(COMSEC) monitoring, network operations and defense, personnel
misconduct (PM), law enforcement (LE), and counterintelligence (CI)
investigations.
At any time, the U.S. Government may inspect and seize data stored
on this information system.
Communications using, or data stored on, this information system
are not private, are subject to routine monitoring, interception,
and search, and may be disclosed or used for any U.S.
Government-authorized purpose.
This information system includes security measures (e.g.,
authentication and access controls) to protect U.S. Government
interests -- not for your personal benefit or privacy.
Notwithstanding the above, using an information system does not
constitute consent to personnel misconduct, law enforcement, or
counterintelligence investigative searching or monitoring of the
content of privileged communications or data (including work
product) that are related to personal representation or services by
attorneys, psychotherapists, or clergy, and their assistants. Under
these circumstances, such communications and work product are
private and confidential, as further explained below:
Nothing in this User Agreement shall be interpreted to limit
the user's consent to, or in any other way restrict or affect,
any U.S. Government actions for purposes of network
administration, operation, protection, or defense, or for
communications security. This includes all communications and
data on an information system, regardless of any applicable
privilege or confidentiality.
The user consents to interception/capture and seizure of ALL
communications and data for any authorized purpose (including
personnel misconduct, law enforcement, or counterintelligence
investigation). However, consent to interception/capture or
seizure of communications and data is not consent to the use of
privileged communications or data for personnel misconduct, law
enforcement, or counterintelligence investigation against any
party and does not negate any applicable privilege or
confidentiality that otherwise applies.
Whether any particular communication or data qualifies for the
protection of a privilege, or is covered by a duty of
confidentiality, is determined in accordance with established
legal standards and DoD policy. Users are strongly encouraged
to seek personal legal counsel on such matters prior to using
an information system if the user intends to rely on the
protections of a privilege or confidentiality.
Users should take reasonable steps to identify such
communications or data that the user asserts are protected by
any such privilege or confidentiality. However, the user's
identification or assertion of a privilege or confidentiality
is not sufficient to create such protection where none exists
under established legal standards and DoD policy.
A user's failure to take reasonable steps to identify such
communications or data as privileged or confidential does not
waive the privilege or confidentiality if such protections
otherwise exist under established legal standards and DoD
policy. However, in such cases the U.S. Government is
authorized to take reasonable actions to identify such
communication or data as being subject to a privilege or
confidentiality, and such actions do not negate any applicable
privilege or confidentiality.
These conditions preserve the confidentiality of the
communication or data, and the legal protections regarding the
use and disclosure of privileged information, and thus such
communications and data are private and confidential. Further,
the U.S. Government shall take all reasonable measures to
protect the content of captured/seized privileged
communications and data to ensure they are appropriately
protected.
In cases when the user has consented to content searching or
monitoring of communications or data for personnel misconduct, law
enforcement, or counterintelligence investigative searching, (i.e.,
for all communications and data other than privileged
communications or data that are related to personal representation
or services by attorneys, psychotherapists, or clergy, and their
assistants), the U.S. Government may, solely at its discretion and
in accordance with DoD policy, elect to apply a privilege or other
restriction on the U.S. Government's otherwise authorized use or
disclosure of such information.
All of the above conditions apply regardless of whether the access or use
of an information system includes the display of a Notice and Consent
Banner ("banner"). When a banner is used, the banner functions to remind
the user of the conditions that are set forth in this User Agreement,
regardless of whether the banner describes these conditions in full detail
or provides a summary of such conditions, and regardless of whether the
banner expressly references this User Agreement.
