Nope, a federal employee cannot be discriminated against for the sole reason the employee filed BK
See BK code section 525. -

HHM is correct, they cant fire you but....... if you hold clearances they may be downgraded or taken for a while if DIS decides to investigate why BK was necessary. When I worked for the gov't - this was an issue, and while not terribly bad, it is looked into and you must divulge it if you hold clearances. ETA: Forgot to mention that its also possible that you may be required to go to HR for "courses". For the life of me I cant recall what its called though...its a part of HR...but has counseling (like family, debt, abuse etc).
Sorry
my brains fried - been sick for the past few days - if I remember, I'll post here.
Good luck to you!Comment
