The Subcommittee on Human Resources, which I chair, has jurisdiction over
numerous issues affecting the Federal workforce, including staffing levels and em-
ployee utilization at Federal agencies. Currently, the Subcommittee is conducting
oversight work, 'to determine whether agencies are properly staffed, to ensure that
program missions are carried out in the most efficient and cost-effective manner
possible.. Additionally, the Subcommittee is interested in agency efforts to mini-
mize the effects of reductions-in-force on Federal employees, when changes in
staffing levels are necessary.
I would appreciate your providing the authorized and actual staffing levels
for your department/agency, for fiscal years '81-'85. When applicable, levels may
be given in terms of full-time equivalents (FTEs). If these figures can be broken
down into major divisions within your department, it would be helpful to receive
that information, relating to the workforce at your department/agency:
1) An explanation of any reductions-in-force which have occurred at
your department/agency, from fiscal years '81 - present. Your re-
sponse should include any significant lowering of FTE levels, even
if it was not necessary to separate any employees, and how this
was accomplished.
Any reductions-in-force which are planned for the next year, and
the reasons this will be necessary.
3) Total salary costs for personnel at your department/agency, for
fiscal years '81 - present. If possible, please provide these
figures for each major division within your agency.
4) If your department/agency, or any division within your agency, is
currently over its aut.ho-rized personnel ceiling, please provide an
explanation. i. I r

Additionally, I am interested in efforts made by your department/agency to
avoid separating Federal employees from the Civil Service, when reductions-in-force
or reduced staffing levels become necessary. For example, some agencies have
utilized outside placement firms to assist employees during a large workforce
change.
Finally, I would appreciate your insight into what factors over the past sev-
eral years, have contributed to the need for Federal agencies to reduce their
staffing levels, and how these reductions may have affected the ability of your
agency to successfully carry out its programs.
Thank you very much for your assistance in this matter. The Subcommittee
looks forward to your response.
Best Wishes,
A bosta
