Government – Private Worker Exchange Approved

from the I'll-trade-you-one-bizdev-guy-for-one-civil-servant dept

I’m not quite sure what to make of this. The House has apparently approved a bill allowing private companies and the federal government to exchange workers. The government is afraid that they’re not going to have enough IT workers over the next few years – so this will let them “call up” employees from other companies while sending their own workers somewhere they can receive extra training.
