Federal Workforce Cuts: Rights, Risks, and Legal Battles
How do federal workforce reductions impact employee rights? In Federal Workforce Cuts: Rights, Risks, and Legal Battles, we break down the legal framework behind Reduction in Force (RIF) procedures, the rights of federal employees, and the growing legal battles challenging mass dismissals. Featuring expert insights on cases like Gandola v. FTC and James v. Von Zemenszky, we explore the tension between agency discretion and employee protections. With reports of potential abuses in RIF processes, including pretextual firings disguised as "performance issues," we ask: Are federal workers being unlawfully dismissed? Tune in for a deep dive into the legal and ethical stakes in government downsizing.
