All Clear? When Employee Security Clearances are Revoked or Suspended

If a Federal employee is required to have access to classified information, then the employee must be eligible for a security clearance in order to keep that position. What happens when the employee no longer has that clearance?

This class will detail how to handle a security clearance suspension, revocation and any resulting indefinite suspension or removal from employment. We’ll discuss MSPB’s role, the proof the agency needs to provide if the employee appeals a removal, and the pitfalls agencies must avoid.

Learning objectives

• Identify and understand Executive Orders pertaining to national security.
• Understand the National Security Adjudicative Guidelines.
• Recognize the agency’s burden when removing an employee for failure to maintain a security clearance.
