Statement of Robert J. Lieberman Deputy Inspector General Department of Defense to the Senate Subcommittee on Oversight of Government Management, Restructuring and The District of Columbia and the House Subcommittee on Civil Service and Agency Organization on National Security Implications of the Human Capital Crisis

Abstract

I am pleased to be here today to discuss human capital management issues in the Department of Defense (DoD) . My testimony today will focus on recent audit reports by my office on Defense programs with workforce issues. The condition of the DoD workforce is of particular concern to my office, because our auditing and investigative work constantly reinforces awareness that a properly sized, well-trained and highly motivated workforce is the best defense against fraud, waste and mismanagement. In addition, I have been privileged to serve in the Senior Executive Service for 21 years and currently manage about 1,200 civilian employees and about 30 military personnel, so I have personal experience on these matters. My opinions in this statement reflect those of the Office of the Inspector General, DoD, but not necessarily those of the Department.
