In early July, Navy Secretary Gordon England, who is heading up the Pentagon's effort to design a massive new civilian personnel system, met with employees to discuss progress on the project. He offered little in the way of specifics, saying that Defense Department leaders were just beginning the long process of setting up a structure to get input from employees and to develop proposals. But England made it clear that the department was strongly committed to the principle of pay-for-performance, which was a key impetus for the reform effort - and not just on the grounds of fairness.

Employment tests and minority employment The use of employment tests that are based on merit usually puts businesses in a tight spot. When they use these merit-based instruments, they may find themselves the subject of costly lawsuits and find that such tests may indeed be found discriminatory under Constitutional law and legislative and regulatory pronouncements. They may then be compelled to come up with studies proving that their merit standards are 'demonstrably related' to job performance and are a 'business necessity.' Some businesses avoid government obtrusion and legal troubles by implementing policies aimed at ensuring minority representation. Companies that want to benefit from productivity gains that merit-based tests usually produce should be brave enough to defend themselv...

In spite of the fact that high technology organizations are consistently rated as excellent organizations for which to be employed, we know relatively little about the human resources management practices that have been instrumental in facilitating this belief. In this study we examine the concerns of human resource managers from four samples (one domestic and three global) about their concerns with respect to managerial and professional employees. We conclude that more information is needed specifically geared toward this group of employees in this type of environment and that organizations need to spend more time seeking to accurately assess the performance of professional and managerial employees. Surprisingly little has changed in their practices since Sept. 11, 2001.
