Homeland Security Advisory Council 

(HSAC) to establish a DHS Employee 

Morale Task Force on Thursday, 

October 9, 2014. The DHS Employee 

Morale Task Force will provide 

recommendations on how to improve 

employee morale throughout the DHS 

enterprise. This notice informs the 

public of the establishment of the DHS 

Employee Morale Task Force and is not 

a solicitation for membership.

Security Advisory Council and the DHS

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Homeland Security Advisory Council 

provides organizationally independent, 

strategic, timely, specific, and 

actionable advice and recommendations 

for the consideration of the Secretary of 

the Department of Homeland Security

The Homeland Security Advisory 

Council is comprised of leaders of local 

law enforcement, first responders, state 

and local government, the private 

sector, and academia. 

Tasking: The DHS Employee Morale 

Task Force should develop findings and 

recommendations in the following topic 

areas. The DHS Employee Morale Task 

Force should address, among other 

closely related topics, the following 

questions: (1) What are the core or root 

causes of continued low morale in the 

Department of Homeland Security? (2) 

How can DHS strengthen its leadership 

cadre, in order to both enhance mission 

effectiveness and also increase 

employee morale? (3) How can DHS 

work as a whole, across the agencies 

and recognizing their distinct cultures, 

to build a greater sense of belonging and 

improve employee morale? (4) 

Referencing the 2007 HSAC DHS Morale 

Assessment: which of those 

recommendations were successfully 

implemented? For those items that were 

not but still remain relevant, what 

changes should be made to increase the 

likelihood of successful implementation 

and organizational adoption? 

Schedule: The DHS Employee Morale 

Task Force’s findings and 

recommendations will be submitted to 

the Homeland Security Advisory 

Council for their deliberation and vote 

during a public meeting. Once the

Advisory Council no later than nine 

months after the publication of the date
