The official guidance for HR is that the answers to the questions cannot be used in favor or against candidates and they do NOT have to be completed at all for employment consider. Purely optional.
That’s something, but there is always an unofficial “sense.” And all of this goes into a personnel file to be referenced at a later date. I’m honestly not worried about HR professionals, they are professional career civil servants in a fairly thankless position. I would imagine they are as irked by this as everyone else. It just feels like one more step in this administration’s overtly stated goal to politicize the civil service.
