US President Donald Trump's administration is moving to further tighten its grip on the hiring and firing of federal employees, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal. As Tesla CEO Elon Musk fades from Washington politics, the US government has positioned key agencies as an important part of the ongoing streamlining of the government system. The work is centred on the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the government's human resources arm. At the heart of the Musk administration's reform plan, the office has begun directly approving applications for new jobs at federal agencies, according to agency announcements obtained by the Wall Street Journal. The move marks a major policy shift - previously agencies typically made their own decisions about job allocation.
