New Rule Requires Federal Contractors to Keep Current Employees

http://www.clearancejobs.com/defense-news/404/new-rule-requires-contractors-to-keep-current-employees

“Companies that win government contracts are now required to offer employment to its predecessor’s employees, according to a new rule by the Labor Department.

“The new rule covers service contracts valued at more than $150,000 and also applies to subcontractors. The Labor Department estimates that 40,000 contractors and subcontractors will be subject to the rule annually, which is based on 2006 federal procurement data.

“The rule originated from a 2009 executive order issued by President Obama seeking to reduce disruption during a contractor transition and retain experienced workers. Under the rule, federal contracting officers will help determine which employees would stay on their jobs when contracted work changes hands.”

" federal contracting officers will help determine which employees would stay on their jobs when contracted work changes hands"

In other words, un-needed duplicate Union workers will be FORCED on the winning bidder contractor, as in Gestapo-tactics.

The new contractor will be provided with snitch employees who will keep their benefactor "government contracting officers" informed.....
