Office of Personnel Management June 30, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is proposing to revise the regulations governing qualification requirements for appointment to a Federal position in the competitive service. The purpose of these proposed regulations is to update and clarify information regarding citizenship and age requirements, add new information concerning appealing an agency's qualification determination, retitle the Operating Manual: Qualification Standards for General Schedule Positions to include other pay plans or systems, and replace the Operating Manual with a Web site address for OPM's qualification requirements. These regulations also delete obsolete information regarding purchasing the Operating Manual from the Government Printing Office.
