Like all of you, we are trying to learn the details of these new Deferred Resignation Program (DRP), Voluntary Seperation Incentive Program (VSIP) and Voluntary Early Retirement Authority (VERA) program and evaluate them in the context of a potential future Reduction in Force (RIF). We are committed to sharing any information we find in the coming weeks. In the meantime, the following Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer (OCHCO) Sharepoint information sites are available:
NASA Deferred Resignation Program Sharepoint NASA VERA and VSIP Sharepoint And you can sign-up for Workforce Workshops about these programs. The application window for these programs is open and will close on July 25th. GESTA does want to reiterate one of our primary concerns about the DRP program, which is that, as in the prior program version, the NASA DRP contract template includes language waiving certain rights, including “Employee waives any and all claims relating to Employee’s employment with NASA, including all rights to file any other complaints with, or appeals to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Merit Systems Protection Board or other administrative fora, and civil litigation arising out of matters or events prior to the execution of this Agreement…” As before, GESTA recommends employees considering this offer consult a federal labor lawyer. If you missed the Center town hall on Monday June 16th, further information on these programs was shared by Center management at that time. A few areas captured from the town hall are below. |
