Discharge with Prejudice


 In view of the fact that on con tract work in Alaska employees have been, on occasions. "discharg- ed with prejudice" so as to prevent their employment for some period on any other Government work or project, 1t is interesting to note that the Civil Service Commission has forbidden any more such dis charges with respect to employees under Civil Service. The reason as signed for making the order is that in too many instances a discharge with prejudice is unjust to the employee. Tn my judgment, the same rule should be extended to non-Civil Service employees. The discharged with prejudice" smaeks too much of the blacklisting pract- ices that were carried on by private corporations years ago. In many In- stances brought to my knowledge of such discharges in Alaska the proof clearly indicated that the dis charges were not only unjust to the employees affected but really ran counter to the true interests of the| Government.
