Description

The Dept. of Defense (DOD) is in large part dependent on the skills and competencies of civilian personnel comprising almost 800,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions. Between FY 2002 and 2012, DODäó»s budgeted civilian personnel costs increased by about 21%, to about $72 billion. In FY 2010, the then-Secretary of Defense directed the Office of the Secretary of Defense and other headquarters commands to freeze (or cap) the number of civilian FTEs at the FY 2010 level for FY 2011-13. During FY 2011, he extended the cap to the military services for fiscal years 2012-13 and granted exceptions adjusting the caps above fiscal year 2010 levels. This report determined (1) the military servicesäó» progress in meeting adjusted civilian workforce cap targets for FY 2012 and associated savings; and (2) steps DOD has taken to help ensure that, in implementing the cap, it has maintained critical skills and competencies for its civilian workforce. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
