Government Employees

Federal employees work under a constrained system of rules, regulations and executive orders that severely limit their scope of bargaining. Job Security is at best tentative with outsourcing, down-sizing and a convoluted maze of laws affecting how they must deal with hundred of agencies for lay-offs, promotions and other personnel matters.

Our Department is responsible for responding to the volumes of changes that occur and we meet with agencies through National Consultation Rights and seats on National Partnership Councils. It is our job to keep Federal Employees, their elected leadership, and our full-time staff abreast of those changes and to provide the requested services to insure their economic well being and quality of work life.
