OPM Advances Plan to Remove Civil Service Protections for Policy Roles

OPM Advances Plan to Remove Civil Service Protections for Policy Roles

Snippet of Article: "...The Trump administration is moving forward with plans to reclassify around 50,000 federal employees into roles with fewer civil service protections, making them easier to fire or replace.

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management published a proposed rule on April 23 that would introduce a worker classification known as “Schedule Policy/Career” — a successor to the “Schedule F” order that President Donald Trump issued toward the end of his first term but ran out of time to implement. The public is invited to comment on the proposed rule by May 23.

Employees who may be reclassified as Schedule Policy/Career include staff who have “substantive participation and discretionary authority in agency grantmaking,” the rule states. ..."

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Creates New Federal Employee Category to Enhance Accountability

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Creates New Federal Employee Category to Enhance Accountability

Snippet of Article: "...RESTORING ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE FEDERAL WORKFORCE: Today, President Donald J. Trump’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM) took action to implement President Trump’s Executive Action titled “Restoring Accountability to Policy-Influencing Positions Within the Federal Workforce.”

OPM proposed a rule to amend the civil service regulations to include Schedule Policy/Career for career employees with important policy-determining, policy-making, policy-advocating, or confidential duties.
These employees will serve as at-will employees, without access to cumbersome adverse action procedures or appeals, overturning Biden Administration regulations that protected poor performing employees.
Line federal employees who implement those policies, like Border Patrol agents or wage and hour inspectors, will generally be excluded. This rule empowers federal agencies to swiftly remove employees in policy-influencing roles for poor performance, misconduct, corruption, or subversion of Presidential directives, without lengthy procedural hurdles. ..."

Art of the Deal: Trump Admin. Offers Buyouts to 2 Million Federal Employees

Art of the Deal: Trump Admin. Offers Buyouts to 2 Million Federal Employees

Snippet of Article: "...There's good news for federal employees who were unhappy to learn they were expected to return to working in the office under the new Trump administration: They have another option — a buyout. ...President Trump's already unprecedented purge of the federal workforce.

What they're saying: "The government-wide email being sent today is to make sure that all federal workers are on board with the new administration's plan to have federal employees in office and adhering to higher standards. We're five years past COVID and just 6 percent of federal employees work full-time in office. That is unacceptable"
