(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Veterans Affairs were once again named the worst two federal agencies to work for in an annual survey, leading DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson to say he’s “disappointed” in the result.
DHS in particular has been trying for years to boost the morale of its workforce, and has so far seen limited improvement.
A new survey from Partnership for Public Service, a group aimed at making “our government more effective and efficient,” gave DHS a score of 45.8 for 2016, which put DHS at the bottom of a list of 18 major federal agencies.
