      "title": "Homeland Security: Final Regulations for the Department of Homeland Security Human Resources Management System (Subpart E) Compared With Current Law",
      "summary": "On February 1, 2005, final regulations to implement a new human resources management system\nfor the Department of Homeland Security (\"DHS\") were published. The regulations provide for the\norganization of the new personnel system, describing, among other topics, the use of pay bands, how\njobs will be evaluated, and how pay will be administered. In addition, subpart E of the final\nregulations defines the department's labor relations system. This report compares the provisions of\nthe final regulations with similar provisions from title 5, chapter 71 of the  U.S. Code . \nAlthough the\ncollective bargaining rights for employees of DHS will be subject to the new regulations, such rights\nfor most federal employees are otherwise governed by 5 U.S.C. chapter 71. While some of the\ndifferences involve simply a change in diction, other changes are more significant. The\nestablishment of a Homeland Security Labor Relations Board that will perform many of the duties\notherwise undertaken by the Federal Labor Relations Authority, as well as a redefining of what\nconstitutes certain unfair labor practices are examples of these more noteworthy changes. The\nregulations take effect on March 3, 2005.",
