How the GS System Fails Federal Workers and Everyone Else - Management Matters - Management - GovExec.com


"A core problem is that the Bureau of Labor Statistics no longer conducts surveys designed to report the prevailing market pay for specific jobs. At one time BLS did conduct a so-called benchmark survey, reporting market rates nationally and in each locality area, but it was terminated in the mid-1990s.  

That's when the problems started. No president has ever agreed to close the "pay gap" and there is no reason to believe that is going to change. Current BLS surveys were not planned for this purpose, and after trying for two decades, there is no reason to think complex statistical models will produce credible answers."



Cheers, and have an outstanding day

Recommended Christmas gift - The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene

Recommended Christmas gift - The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene Despite living in a tech driven world, the core of our society remains in the human domain. A domain often competing between being driven by reason, or by emotion. Greene addresses this competition occurring in the human condition and how the condition shapes our lives as a victor, or victim… as a leader or follower… as a person living in poverty or wealth. The book can be used as a tool for self reflection, regeneration and self development. You can find the book, in various formats here, or at your local library. #lawsofhumannature #selfdevelopment #competition #wealthgeneration https://amzn.to/3ZW8WM3
