allows the suspension of such employees for misconduct or poor performance;
denies a pay increase to employees who do not achieve a certain performance rating;
denies a retirement annuity to an employee convicted of a felony;
permits the transfer of a Senior Executive Service employee to a position in the General Schedule; and
prohibits an employee from carrying out the business of a labor organization unless such employee is in a non-duty status or from using any government property in carrying out union business.
