Businessman Ilon Musk’s US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) intends to lay off thousands of ‘unnecessary’ employees at the US Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration.
About it reports the Associated Press agency with reference to the relevant document.
The publication notes that 8.5 thousand employees are at risk – they, according to DOGE, are suitable for dismissal and will help to achieve the goals of the decree of US President Donald Trump on mass cuts in federal agencies.
The document reveals that 500 of the 3,000 employees at the National Nuclear Security Agency are marked as ‘unnecessary.’
In the Ministry of energy ‘minor’ recognised 8 thousand people out of 17.5 thousand.
Earlier it became known that for 2 months more than 280 thousand civil servants were dismissed in the United States because of the actions of DOGE.
