WASHINGTON<\/strong> \u2013 The nonpartisan, nonprofit Partnership for Public Service<\/a> today released the following statement from President and CEO Max Stier<\/strong> responding to reports that the Trump administration has begun terminating federal employees in their probationary period: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Trump administration\u2019s decision to fire civil servants who have been in service for under a year is yet another profoundly damaging action.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith just over 7% of federal employees under age 30, our government needs a new generation of workers with the necessary skills to better serve the needs of our modern society. By terminating employees simply because they are the most vulnerable, the Trump administration has just thrown away our down payment on the future. Many of those who lost their jobs today were newer hires made in areas of great need for our government, including AI, cybersecurity, and technology. It is ultimately our country that will pay a heavy price for this arbitrary dismantling of the civil service.\u201d   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit the Partnership\u2019s new Federal Employee Resource Hub<\/a> for more information about how these policies may impact civil servants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the past 24 years, the nonpartisan, nonprofit Partnership for Public Service has been dedicated to building a better government and a stronger democracy. We work across administrations to help transform the way government works by providing agencies with the data insights they need to succeed, developing effective leaders, inspiring the next generation to public service, facilitating smooth presidential transitions and recognizing exceptional federal employees.\u202f\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n
