Percy Ranking Minority Member Committee on Government Operations United States Senate Dear Senator Percy: In a June 9, 1975, report to you we provided budgetary, organizational, and personnel data for Federal departments and agencies doing police.and investigative work. We iden- tified 33 departments and agencies requiring $2.6 billion in funding and 169,625 people to do or directly support, police and investigative work for fiscal year 1975. On August 18, 1975, you asked our Office to follow up on this information. On October 8, 1975, we advised you of certain work we had underway and that we had begun a survey of the Federal guard activities identified in our June 9 re- port. This is our report on the results of that survey. Twenty-three agencies were funded at $551.4 million and staffed with 46,878 police and guards during fiscal year 1975. We surveyed 10 of the 23 agencies, representing about 28 per- cent of the funding and 22 percent of the personnel reported to you as in the guard category for fiscal year 1975. Al- though protective services at several of the agencies involved essentially the same duties and responsibilities, salaries and basic training provided varied: --Salaries, because some agencies had special legisla- tion authorizing higher salary rates. --Training, because training standards had not been prescribed for Federal protective services. We recommend that the Civil Service Commission and the Office of Management and Budget take actions to correct the variances. SALARY VARIANCES Persons providing protective services at the 10 agencies were classified by the Civil Service Commission as either guards or police. Salaries varied widely.. 1 GGD-76-82
