Summary

The foundation’s board hires, removes, and replaces its officers and staff. Those officers and employees are normally not federal employees (unless another part of this chapter says otherwise), and the foundation does not have to use title 5 competitive service rules or chapter 51 and subchapter III of chapter 53 of title 5 for hiring or pay. When they travel for work, the Administrator of General Services’ travel rate schedules treat them as federal employees.
