Hundreds of thousands of people could potentially be affected, according to data from the Office of Personnel Management.
The Trump administration has issued a directive to federal agencies to expedite the dismissal of employees who are still within their probationary period, as reported by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This move aims to streamline the process of removing underperforming or unsuitable employees before they gain full civil service protections. The guidance emphasizes that agencies should not hesitate to terminate probationary employees if they do not meet performance standards or exhibit conduct issues. This policy reflects a broader push by the administration to reduce what they perceive as bureaucratic inefficiencies and to ensure that only the most qualified individuals remain in federal service. The directive also includes instructions on how to handle such terminations legally and efficiently, ensuring that due process is observed while minimizing legal risks.
