SUBJECT: Rehired Civilian Annuitants
1. The Director of Personnel recently furnished
to me a list of 200 rehired civilian annuitants, as
of 30 June 1976, in either an independent contractor
or contract employee status. I am concerned that this
overall number may be excessive and that perhaps in
certain instances we are hiring annuitants to accomplish
work that could be performed by current employees or
for which we could recruit new ones. By way of com-
parison, the number of such rehired annuitants was
154 for FY 1974 and 159 for FY 1975.
2. I recognize that a retiree often represents
a wealth of unique background and experience and is
sometimes the best qualified person to accomplish a
job. Nevertheless the standard for their employment.
STATINTL contained I uis a narrow one which allows
fulfillment of requirements that cannot be met through
internal reassignment or training of current employees
or through new recmtments. In addition, Congress
recently passed 11egislation which will require an
agency that empl~ esd Civil Service annuitant to pay
the equivalent ofhis annuity to the Civil Service
retirement fund. Provisions of our recent CIARDS
amendment may result in application of this change
to CIARDS retirees also.

3. Consequently, I ask that you examine your
employment of each annuitant in a contract or
independent contractor status as well as each request
for an extension or initial hire in these cate ories
to assure that the justification required
is present. I intend to ask the Director of Personnel
to provide me with semi-annual reports which show
all annuitants on board in the above categories,
and the written justification for each, as of
April 1 and October 1 of each year.
