Document Number: 2021-11185
Type: Notice
Date: 2021-05-27
Agency: Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary
On September 15, 2017, DoD published a Federal Register Notice (FRN) to implement a new workforce-shaping pilot program that provides the science and technology reinvention laboratory (STRL) lab directors the authority to dynamically shape the mix of technical skills and expertise in the workforces of such laboratories to achieve one or more of the objectives in section 1109(a) of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016. The suite of workforce-shaping tools available to STRL lab directors includes flexible-length and renewable-term technical appointments, modified re- employed annuitant authority, and modified voluntary early retirement and separation incentive authorities. Updates are necessary to clarify that subsequent changes to this authority are applicable. For example, section 1112 of the NDAA for FY 2019 amends this authority to allow flexible-length and renewable-term technical appointments for current DoD term employees. In addition to updating other legislative references, this notice clarifies application of probationary/trial periods and career tenure to flexible-length and renewable-term technical appointments and subsequent conversion to career or career- conditional appointments.
