IG’s long stretch in limbo of administrative leave is unfair to him, agency and taxpayers - The Washington Post Ferriero placed Brachfeld on administrative leave because of professional misconduct allegations that the IG strongly denies. The Office of Special Counsel found that he did not violate federal personnel practices. An investigation by the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) isn’t finished. As stressful as this situation is for Brachfeld, and as important as this case might be for Ferriero, the details of the allegations (covered previously <http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/archives-ig-enters-18th-month-on-paid-leave-taxpayers-footing-the-bill/2014/02/23/36751cdc-9b30-11e3-9080-5d1d87a6d793_story.html>by my colleague Lisa Rein), and their validity, are not at issue here. His case raises the larger issues of fairness and the potential for conflicts of interest. http://wapo.st/1neQ42Z Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/federal_government/igs-long-stretch-in-limbo-of-administrative-leave-is-unfair-to-him-agency-and-taxpayers/2014/05/04/b47b4acc-d210-11e3-9e25-188ebe1fa93b_story.html See if people are clicking on this link: http://wapo.st/1neQ42Z+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
