Do the same rules apply to government contractors? I know of several who fill full time positions (doing actual work in accordance with their salary btw) working out of govt offices, using govt office supplies, etc. and their only interaction with their parent companies is to collect the paycheck/update their health/benefits paperwork. This is usually done because it's a lot easier to get funding for a specific position under a certain project contract than to go through the personnel gyrations required to add another government civil service billet.
According to these rules, would the contractors be eligible for federal retirement/health/etc?
