3. May 2012 UNCLASSIFIED 3 of 14 COL Douglas S. Mulbury/IMPC-HAW-ZA/(808) 656-1153/douglas.s.mulbury.mil@mail.mil In December the Department of the Army notified Congress of 8000+ civilian personnel reductions, effective for FY13 IMCOM reduction target is 3,766 Garrison reduction target is 104 IMCOM directed Garrisons to begin implementing and voluntary retirements and constructive personnel management measures to reduce its staffing to mandated end-strength by the end of September 2012. In early March IMCOM directed submission of RIF Packages from Garrisons not on glide path to achieving mandatory staffing level. Current projections reflect high probability that USAG-HI will meet its mandated staffing level, but will continue to have a significant workload to skill set mismatches. On 2 May IMCOM issued FRAGO 7 to OPORD 12-020 authorizing Garrisons offer another round of VERA/VSIP and the use of Mock RIF in determining the exact positions and personnel that would be impacted if RIF procedures were implemented.

12. May 2012 UNCLASSIFIED 12 of 14 COL Douglas S. Mulbury/IMPC-HAW-ZA/(808) 656-1153/douglas.s.mulbury.mil@mail.mil A mock RIF is not a RIF. A mock RIF can be an extremely valuable tool in identifying errors in personnel records before errors negatively impact the employee. All resumes being updated and accurate is critical in obtaining accurate Mock RIF results. A Mock RIF allows leadership to assess the cost benefit of an actual RIF. The results of the Mock RIF will be released only to those potentially impacted employees and their supervisors. We will not lose focus on our commitment to excellence in serving our Units, Soldiers and Families. USAG-HI Employee Town Hall Summary
