Civil service is commonly used to define any government employee that isn't in the military. It is sometimes used to refer to a branch of government of hired professionals.
The federal bureaucracy is made up of the departments and agencies that do the work of the federal government. Most of these departments and agencies are in the Executive Branch, but the Judicial and Legislative branches also have agencies and departments. The people who work in these agencies and departments are known as "civil servants" or (with negative connotations) "bureaucrats". It is also informally known as the "4th Branch" because tenured employees are hard to remove under Civil Service, and these individuals may not suscribe to the policies set by the current administration.
It required hiring certain federal employees because of expertise, not political connections.
No, the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 did not eliminate unions for federal employees. Instead, it established the framework for collective bargaining for federal workers, allowing them to form unions and engage in negotiations over workplace conditions. The Act aimed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the federal workforce while recognizing the rights of employees to organize. Unions continue to play a role in representing federal employees in various matters, including labor relations.
Civil Service Employees Association was created in 1910.
