02/01/2002 TIMELY ALERT - CONTRACTING OUT

The agency has recently published a list of jobs that may be contracted out.

To see if your job is on the line, go to:
http://www.hud.gov/offices/cfo/reports/2001/01inventory.cfm

OMB has a goal of getting 5% of these jobs contracted this year, 10% of the remaining list next year, 15% of the remaining list the year after that, etc. At that rate, it won't be long before your job is contracted out.

Employees may challenge this list. We have until mid-February to present challenges to the FAIR Act list. If you are interested in working on a challenge, WE NEED YOUR HELP. CONTACT YOUR UNION REPRESENTATIVE or Everett Rothschild, 813/228-2026 x2006, Chairman, Council 222 Contracting Out Committee.
