This article speaks to the upcoming Federal budget in terms of the public service workforce. There is a major 'workforce adjustment' being implemented into the public service, with federal departments having major budget cuts.
What this means is that a lot of public service employees have the potential for losing their jobs due to this reduction. When big budget cuts such as this are implemented into the public service, the ones who keep their jobs are the employees that have seniority.
The article is basically highlighting the fact that with these budget cuts, the workforce of hte public service needs also to be renewed / refreshed. Young and energetic employees want to take more responsibilities, and at the same time, their current responsibilities could be stripped away from them. The article is arguing that in order for the future of the public service to continue its service standards, the federal government shouldn't let go of all the young workers.
Worth a read if your interested in the public service, or what's happening currently in terms of the federal budget (which is being released end of March).
