Book excerpt: Discusses 2 special hiring programs created in 1981 by a Fed. court consent decree that settled a lawsuit against the Fed. Gov't. This lawsuit alleged that an employment test the Gov't. used at that time for more than 200 entry-level prof'l. and admin. occupations had an adverse impact upon African-Amer. and Hispanic job applicants. The 2 hiring programs on which this report focuses, the Outstanding Scholar and Bilingual/Bicultural Programs, were created as a partial and temporary remedy. This report shows that today, some 18 years after the consent decree was approved, the hiring programs it created are no longer needed to achieve the goal of a representative workforce.

Book excerpt: Describes how prevalent exceptions to competitive examining have become and the need for supervisors to understand the implication of their use of the alternative hiring authorities. The upcoming wave of expected retirements may be a tsunami, or it may have the erosive effect of a constant crashing of smaller waves upon the beach. In either case, most experts agree that the Gov¿t. will need to replace half a million employees in the near future. These new employees will serve as the backbone of the Fed. civil service for a generation. This report studies how new employees are brought into the civil service under the 4 largest Gov¿t.-wide hiring authorities and the implications those processes may have for the composition of the civil service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
