Management Directed Reassignment: What's Next?
A management directed reassignment (MDR) is not a new concept for agencies, but recent cases have been unexpected, coming "out of the blue."
After receiving an MDR, federal employees should ask several questions, according to attorneys specializing in federal workforce issues.
Ask for the reporting structure. Ask for the duties and the job title, because in some of these letters that we’ve seen, they’ve got nothing.
As Erik Snyder, counsel with Gilbert Employment Law, advises, employees should inquire about the type of information they would want to know about their new role, including the job title and responsibilities.
- Request the reporting structure
- Ask for duties and job title
- Inquire about the type of work to be done
Recently, multiple DHS employees have received MDRs with little to no prior notice, highlighting the importance of seeking clarification and information.
Author's summary: Federal employees receiving MDRs should ask questions to understand their new role.
