Whether the dismissal under the Federal Personnel Act was abusive and therefore gave rise to a right to continued employment
The dismissal was not abusive; the employer had no duty to continue employing the appellant after long unsuccessful placement efforts.
The free-standing of the appellant after loss of a trust position, the employer's prolonged support in finding another post, and the absence of contradictory conduct did not amount to a breach of duty of care or abusive termination under BPG/OR principles.
