Implementation of the National Security Personnel System at the U.S. Army Chemical Materials Agency; Joint Applied Project

摘要

This Joint Applied Project evaluates the effectiveness of the implementation of the National Security Personnel System (NSPS) at the U.S. Army Chemical Materials Agency at the Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland. Twenty-eight (28) Chemical Materials Agency civilian employees, at various levels of responsibilities, were surveyed to determine, from their perspective, how effectively the NSPS had been implemented at the Chemical Materials Agency, and if it had an effect on their job performance or morale. This research identifies the areas of the implementation of the NSPS that may have fallen short of the Agency's expectations and recommends possible areas to improve the current management/employee relationship at the Chemical Materials Agency.
