Office of Personnel Management November 7, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing final regulations on certain pay administration rules dealing with employees in nonforeign areas outside the 48 contiguous States. We are revising provisions related to special rates, locality rates, and retained rates. Some of the revisions are necessary to address the effects of implementing the Non-Foreign Area Retirement Equity Assurance Act of 2009, while others are to improve the administration of special rates.
