The new policy aims to increase accountability among employees in the federal government and ensure that only those who are best suited for their roles are employed. However, some argue that it is unnecessary given that most agencies already have performance management systems in place. The policy also raises concerns about the fairness of the evaluation process and potential bias against certain groups of employees. Nevertheless, the order has been welcomed by many as a step towards restoring public trust in the federal government and reducing wasteful spending.
