The majority (93 percent) of the workforce is in the PSS group, which is further delineated by bargaining unit representation. About 47 percent of the PSS workforce are in unions and covered by collective bargaining agreements. PSS staff provides administrative, professional, technical and operational support through independent judgment, analytical skill and professional or technical expertise, or are responsible for providing clerical, administrative, technical, service and maintenance support.
