Civil Service Changes Civil Service Policies
The Civil Service Commission said it hopes to place appropriate civilian jobs overseas into the competitive service, pending Congress. It plans survey teams at installations in Europe and the Far East and notes 1,052 positions now fall into policy determining or confidential, with 287 moved from competitive service and 244 new. The move follows GOP pressure to appoint more Republicans after 20 years of Democratic patronage. The commission cites a downward federal employment trend in 87 metropolitan areas, listing counts for major cities and noting Indianapolis had the largest increase.
