Federal Employees Legal Survival Guide: How to Protect & Enforce Your Job Rights

Rating:
Summary: A MUST HAVE FOR ALL FEDERAL EMPLOYEES
Review: If you are a federal employee it is imperative to have and refer to this book in order to protect your rights and privileges on and off the job. It contains a great amount of information that is well worth the price. I only wish it were updated (the current edition was printed in 1999), but even that factor is of little import when you consider the benefit of the information it contains. It is thorough, well written and packed with resources. Since it is published by a legal firm that deals with federal employment cases, it is filled with situations that a current federal employee might face on the job.

Summary: get it before you need it
Review: If you work a gov'ment job you need this book. It spells out your rights in dealing with managers and co-workers. Buy it and study it and keep it in your desk at work.

Summary: the holy grail is found!
Review: seriously, for those of us fortunate enough(or is that unfortunate enough?) to work for the federal government, this book is by far the most complete reference work available. keep a copy on your desk and watch your supervisor "wince" as you quote your rights verbatim from the text. it is an easy read and thoroughly details rather complex topics and situations relating to any federal employee's work environment. i've used it repeatedly as a reference guide and to plan strategy in my day to day dealings with co-workers and "pea-brained" manager types. i raise my glass to the author.....cheers!
