Does Competitive Sourcing mean REE does not value its employees?
Our employees are our most valued resource. USDA is implementing the Competitive Sourcing process in accordance with the August 2001 President’s Management Agenda in order to explore the potential for further improving citizen service and effectiveness. Every effort will be expended to ensure REE employees receive fair and equitable treatment during competitive sourcing reviews. The President has emphasized the importance for government to change with the times.
