Book Description
This report describes the similarities and differences between 5 U.S.C. par. 4303, and 7513, the two sections of the law that authorize an agency to take an adverse action against a Federal employee for poor performance. In that context, the report addresses the limited ability of the law to address the underlying challenges of a performance-based action. Poor performers are a serious concern for the Federal workforce, and one that the Government has historically had difficulties addressing. However, as this report explains, the biggest obstacle to addressing poor performers in the Federal Government is not created by a statute, but rather is simply a question of how supervisors manage the performance of their employees.

Book Description
This report identifies how the U.S. government can improve its ability to recruit and hire entry-level professional and administrative employees. To prepare for a potential retirement wave, Federal agencies will likely increase their entry-level hiring to rebuild the pipeline from entry-level positions through the journey-level and beyond. Given this context, it is important to assess how well the Federal hiring process is working, particularly in terms of the Government¿s ability to recruit entry-level new hires from all segments of society and select employees on the basis of merit after fair and open competition. The recommendations in this report focus on how to improve entry-level hiring efforts while also protecting merit. Illustrations.

ISBN : 1437935265
Book Description
The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) launched a re-examination of the prevalence of prohibited personnel practices (PPP) within the Federal Government. This report highlights what the MSPB has learned from past studies in which they examined PPP. It focuses on the PPP because occurrences of these particular behaviors can have an exceptionally negative impact on the morale and productivity of any Federal office. This report identifies 12 PPP, such as discrimination, retaliation, nepotism, deceit or obstruction, coercing political activity, violating veterans¿ preference requirements, or taking or failing to take any personnel action that violates any law, rule, or regulation directly concerning the merit system principles. Illustrations.
