In June 2022, the newly reconstituted MSPB overruled over a decade’s worth of cases on how the Douglas factor involving comparator employees has been interpreted. In this recorded webinar, top Douglas factors expert Robert Erbe clarifies the MSPB’s take on the factors when analyzing the reasonableness of penalties, including the consideration of similarly situated employees; how much weight certain factors should be given; and how it all impacts your agency’s penalty determinations moving forward.
Minimize the risk of reversals by learning best practices to:
- Identify appropriate comparator employees under Douglas factor 6
- Take steps to prepare and document a penalty determination that can withstand review
- Work with the deciding official to ensure all the factors are properly considered
- Take a more proactive approach to avoid common due process mistakes
- Properly weigh each Douglas factor in accordance with MSPB rulings
- And more
