The overhaul, released by the Office of Personnel Management [#OPM], fulfills a campaign promise for #Trump to strip #JobProtections from #FederalWorkers that his team deems to be "influencing" #government policy. It is the biggest change to the rules governing the #CivilService in more than a century. Trump called the overhaul "#ScheduleF" during his first administration.

#Trump will have the power to select which government positions will lose their #JobProtections, according to the statement.

‼️The Trump admin is also changing how long-standing #legal #protections that prohibit #US #government agencies from retaliating against #whistleblowers will be enforced, according to the statement.

#FederalAgencies will be in charge of setting up #JobProtections for their own employees that accuse them of wrongdoing, such as violating the #law or wasting money [who decides what is waste?]. That would be a change from the past, when an #independent office known as the Office of the Special Counsel [#OSC] handled #whistleblower disclosures from most civilian #FederalWorkers.
