The
‘‘Notification and Federal Employee
Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act
of 2002,’’ Public Law 107–174, (No
FEAR Act) was enacted by Congress on
May 15, 2002, for the purpose of, inter
alia, holding Federal agencies
accountable for violations of
antidiscrimination and whistleblower
protection laws. Sections 101(1) and
101(6) of the Act state that ‘‘Federal
agencies cannot be run effectively if
those agencies practice or tolerate
discrimination,’’ and that ‘‘notifying
Federal employees of their rights under
discrimination and whistleblower laws
should increase Federal agency
compliance with the law.’’ Section 202
of the Act requires that written
notification be provided to Federal
employees, former Federal employees,
and applicants for Federal employment
of the rights and protections available to
them under the applicable Federal antidiscrimination and whistleblower
protection laws. Under section 204 of
the No FEAR Act, the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM)
promulgated regulations to carry out the
notification requirements of the Act.
This initial notice is being published in
accordance with the final OPM
regulations at 5 CFR 724.202. This
notice specifically describes the antidiscrimination laws and regulations and
the whistleblower protection regulations
that apply to Postal Service employees.
It also describes the methods to be used
by Postal Service employees to file
complaints under the applicable laws
and regulations.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
No FEAR Act Notice
SUMMARY: The Notification and Federal
Employee Antidiscrimination and
Retaliation Act of 2002 (No FEAR Act)
requires that each Federal agency
provide notice to all employees, former
employees, and applicants for
employment about the rights and
remedies available to them under the
anti-discrimination laws and
whistleblower protection laws that
apply to them. This document fulfills
the Postal ServiceTM’s requirement
under the regulations promulgated by
the Office of Personnel Management to
publish the initial notice of such rights
and remedies in the Federal Register.
DATES: This notice is effective January
23, 2007.
On May 15, 2002, Congress enacted
the ‘‘Notification and Federal Employee
Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act
of 2002,’’ which is now known as the
No FEAR Act. One purpose of the Act
is to ‘‘require that Federal agencies be
accountable for violations of
antidiscrimination and whistleblower
protection laws.’’ Public Law 107–174,
Summary. In support of this purpose,
Congress found that ‘‘agencies cannot be
run effectively if those agencies practice
or tolerate discrimination.’’ Public Law
107–174, Title I, General Provisions,
section 101(1).
The Act also requires the United
States Postal Service (Postal Service) to
provide this notice to Postal Service
employees, former Postal Service
employees and applicants for Postal
Postal Service.
