Comments:
I am a career civilian employee of the Department of Defense and I have serious problems with the "National Security Personnel System" as proposed in the February 14 Federal Register. My three specific concerns relate to the proposed new rules on Pay and Pay Administration{Part 9901 Subpart C}.1. The proposed rules contain the potential for a serious conflict of Interest.2. The proposed rules contain the potential for abuse of pay pool funds.3. The proposed rules allow for the possibility that my pay could be frozen even if my performance is rated satisfactory or better.In my view,no changes should be made to the current pay system used by Department of Defense agencies until complete and detailed proposals are provided, and a full comment and review period is completed, followed by a full collective bargining process with the unions representing DoD employees.
