Can Be-And How!

Another criticism constantly
heard is that Civil Service
personnel can't be fired, no
matter how Inefficient The
facts are entirely otherwise.
Employees can be fired and are
fired, continually, and without
any difficulty. The supervisor
need only be willing to make the
decision and tell the employe
of it with the reason. The
inefficient employe who is re-
tanned in the public service is
retained not because he cannot
be fired, but because some ad-
ministrative officer fails in his
duty and does not use the re-
moval procedure given him by
the Civil Service law. Certainly
it is easier to fire a Civil Serv-
ice than a politically protected
employee" -E. CLAUDE Bah
