Summary:

The federal government will spend about $150 billion on pay and benefits for civilian employees in 1993. The effectiveness and efficiency with which federal agencies carry out programs depends largely on the quality, motivation, and performance of these workers. Thus, the recruitment, hiring, training, management, and accountability of federal employees is critical to effective government. GAO issued 67 reports and 22 testimonies on federal public service during 1991. This report summarizes each of these documents, discusses agency responses to GAO's recommendations on everything from lobbying reform to health club memberships for federal workers, and examines key areas in which further action or monitoring is needed.
