<\/strong><\/p>\n guess who has the federal government\u2019s worst retention rate for employees under 40?<\/strong><\/p>\n by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research<\/em><\/p>\n if you think it\u2019s hard staffing a cpa firm, imagine the challenges at the internal revenue service where<\/p>\n more: <\/b>eight ways the irs can speed up processing tax returns<\/a> | irs plays whac-a-mole with the phones<\/a> | vcs plunk $60 million into ai-powered \u2018autonomous\u2019 tax prep<\/a> | how tax practitioners became cybersecurity risks<\/a> the taxpayer advocacy service says the irs needs to deal with these problems, and it\u2019s going to take money, effort, technology and legislation to get it done. until last year, we saw irs services steadily getting worse. thanks to additional resources made possible by the inflation reduction act, which went into effect in 2023, services have improved, though they\u2019re still inadequate.<\/p>\n according the national taxpayer advocate\u2019s 2024 annual report to congress, \u201cmany of the irs\u2019s challenges are traceable to simply not having adequate staffing. attrition compounds cause for concern because about 18 percent of irs employees are currently retirement eligible and can leave at any time, with 37 percent of irs employees estimated as retirement eligible in the next five years.\u201d<\/p>\n so when your cpa firm or its clients suffer inadequate service at the irs, don\u2019t blame the people who work there. their problem isn\u2019t competence or attitude. it\u2019s that there aren\u2019t enough of these unsung heroes, and if nothing\u2019s done, there will be fewer in the future.<\/p>\n significant threats<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cconsistent, significant employee attrition combined with the often lengthy process have left the irs severely understaffed and unable to adequately recruit, hire and train much-needed new employees over the past decade,\u201d the nta report says.<\/p>\n warning of staffing shortages posing \u201csignificant threats to federal tax administration and taxpayer rights,\u201d the report says the irs must<\/p>\n the hco has sped up the hiring process recently by using direct hire authority. dha gives agencies the power to hire more efficiently and quickly for jobs at general schedule levels of 15 or below. with dha, the irs was able to make 31,880 \u201chiring actions\u201d in 2023, compared to 23,800 in 2022.<\/p>\n nonetheless, the irs still isn\u2019t keeping pace with attrition.<\/p>\n who waits 98 days?<\/strong><\/p>\n the office of personnel management has set a time-to-hire goal of no more than 80 days from a request to hire to an employee\u2019s first day on any federal job. but the irs takes an average of 82 days for an external hire with dha and 98 days without dha.<\/p>\n who waits 98 days for a decision to hire? in today\u2019s accounting market, almost nobody.<\/p>\n and those patient souls who wait tend to get anxious. they inquire. the inquiry takes time because there is no quick way to track a candidate\u2019s progress through the process. the search takes up somebody\u2019s time, delaying the process even more.<\/p>\n the nta suggests several ways to speed up the hiring process:<\/p>\n the cost of a hire: $10,350<\/strong><\/p>\n higher salaries would help, too. federal salaries in 2023 were 27 percent lower than non-federal salaries, worse than the 24 percent differential in 2022.<\/p>\n better benefits and workplace culture would increase the candidate pool and employee retention, the nta report says.<\/p>\n retention is a real problem, with the irs having the federal government\u2019s worst retention rate for employees under the age of 40. with the hiring process costing an average of $10,350 per new employee, better salaries and benefits would be a prudent investment.<\/p>\n the nta report concluded with an urgent message: \u201cto ensure fairness, efficiency and protection of taxpayer rights, the irs must urgently focus on resolving challenges with employee hiring, recruitment, retention and training.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
