March 2004 marked the completion of the government's three year workforce restructuring initiative. In 2001, a goal of 7,300 reductions was set, anticipating a total of 2,500 departures through voluntary exit programs. Since this time there have been over 7,600 departures. As the figure shows, approximately 85 per cent of the departures have been through voluntary exit programs. Since this goal has been achieved, the goal and its corresponding performance measure will not be carried forward.
