HAT

Slang for the title and work of a post in a Scientology Organization; taken from the fact that in many professions, such as railroading, the type of hat worn is the badge of the' job.

From the AOGP Abridged Scientology Dictionary — based on original LRH source materials, updated through 1982.

Usage

When a person is assigned to a post such as Letter Registrar in a Scientology Organization, they would study their hat — the full title, duties, and responsibilities of that specific job.

Why It Matters

Hatting ensures every staff member knows the exact duties of their post, preventing confusion about who does what. A well-hatted organization runs efficiently because each person fully understands their role.
