Bill > HR242

This bill, known as the "MANAGER Act", requires federal agencies to conduct annual surveys of managers at or above the GS-13 grade level to assess workplace management challenges and attitudes. The survey will include specific questions about managers' confidence in disciplinary processes, their sense of support, training adequacy, and workplace morale. Key survey topics include managers' willingness to discipline employees, their perception of leadership support, the impact of poor performer retention on work unit morale, and whether good employees have left due to disciplinary system inefficiencies. The survey must offer options for both quantitative and narrative responses, allowing managers to provide detailed feedback. The Office of Personnel Management is mandated to update relevant regulations within 180 days of the bill's enactment to implement these new survey requirements. The bill aims to provide insights into federal workplace management challenges and potentially improve employee performance and organizational effectiveness by capturing managers' perspectives on current workplace practices.
