Summary:

"The George W. Bush Administration seeks to change the federal personnel system, which it characterizes as a "one-size fits all," longevity-based personnel and pay system, to what it describes as a market sensitive, performance-based pay system. Removing federal employees at the Departments of Defense and of Homeland Security from the General Schedule (GS) to separate performance-based systems was the first major step taken and, if fully implemented, will cover more than half of all non-uniformed federal employees. The Administration also sent to the House and the Senate the Working for America Act (WFAA), as a model for legislation to create a new Federal Schedule for the remaining federal civil service employees. (To date, WFAA has not been introduced as legislation.)"--Page 2.
