Comments:
During the Legislative process DoD stated that NSPS was vital to our future National Security. We believe that current employees are 100% committed to National Security. The NSPS proposals treat the front line employees as though they are not committed. These flexibilities take away our right to have a real voice on working conditions and take away rules that protect basic fairness and merit. NSPS will actually create turmoil and undermine National Security readiness. The current system is a mission driven, performance based merit system that can motivate, recognize and reward excellence. Performance recognition has suffered from the fact that DoD has tight budgets and never adequately funded it. But, for NSPS, DoD has emphatically stated no additional funding will be allowed. Without the proper funding all of this is a failure and should not be allowed to continue; REPEAL NSPS.
