Comments:

I believe the proposed NSPS will undermine the Civil Service and hurt the mission of the DoD employees. Subpart C Pay, sections 9901.301 to 9901.373 The employees in DoD should continue to receive the same annual pay across the board adjustment that other GS/FWS workers receive. The individual pay increases for the performance should include guaranteed percentagse in the regulations so that employees will understand the pay system and what their pay increase will be depending on their performance. Subpart D Performance Management- 9901.401 to 9901.409 In order to ensure fairness and accuracy, DoD employees should be able to appeal any performance rating to an independant grievance and arbitration process like they can do now.
