Comments:

DOD SHOULD NOT CHANGE THE CURRENT LAYOFF/RIF RULES WHICH GIVE BALANCED CREDIT TO PERFORMANCE AND THE EMPLOYEES VALUABLE YEARS OF COMMITTED SERVICE TO DOD. TO ENSURE FAIRNESS AND ACCURACY, DOD EMPLO9YEES SHOULD BE ABLE TO APPEAL ANY PERFORMANCE RATING TO AN INDEPENDENT GRIEVANCE AND ARBITRATION PROCESS LIKE THEY CAN DO NOW.
