SUBPART F - Workforce Shaping. Section 9901.601. Under the proposed regulations, DOD will have total flexibility to reduce in numbers (RIF) the size of its workforce. In addition, it will be able to realign staff and reorganize work units within any department. Through the use of surgical workforce shaping actions, managers within DOD will have new power to reassign or remove staff with whom they disagree. Clearly, these were not the types of personnel flexibilities that Congress envisioned under NSPS.
