Personnel Management Office January 11, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Office of Personnel Management is issuing final regulations to amend the incentive awards regulations. The amended regulations clarify that if agencies grant rating-based awards, they must base such awards on a rating of record of ``Fully Successful'' (or equivalent) or higher. In addition, agencies must ensure that rating- based awards granted make meaningful distinctions based on levels of performance.
