[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That survey is from FY 2018, is there a more current one?[/quote]

No. AFGE 17, which represents VA Central Office employees (including BVA attorneys), was essentially inoperative during the Trump Administration, as Trump heavily restricted union representation time. The union is becoming more active now that Biden has restored full union rights. Hopefully, the union can do something about management's plan to significantly increase the quota in FY2022.

has this plan been expressed publicly by management?[/quote]

Yes. The Chairman has notified the union that she wants the Board to render 111,500 decisions in the upcoming fiscal year. That's a year over year increase of approximately 20,000 decisions. As the Board has approximately 850 attorneys on staff, attorneys will each be expected to draft an additional 24 decisions in FY2022. The quota for for FY2022 will be even higher than the quota in FY2018.
