1. Keeping an eye on Schedule F and other proposals to reform federal workforce and pay protections.

Author

*PERSONNEL management, *LABOR supply, *UNITED States presidential election, 2020, *CIVIL service, *PAY for performance, *SCHEDULING, *REFORMS
Abstract

The article discusses the potential impact of the proposed Schedule F on the federal workforce and pay protections. Schedule F, which was introduced by former President Donald Trump, aims to remove job protections for rank-and-file federal employees, making them easier to fire. While the Office of Personnel Management has taken steps to strengthen regulatory protections against such attempts, Trump and other Republican candidates, such as Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley, continue to support the idea. However, experts believe that the possibility of completely gutting federal workforce protections is remote, as the civil service system is protected by laws that cannot be easily overturned. Federal employees have mechanisms in place to appeal any unfair firings and protect their pay and benefits. It is advised for federal employees to research and understand each candidate's proposals regarding job protections, pay, and benefits. [Extracted from the article]
