Abstract
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing proposed regulations governing probation on initial appointment to a competitive position, performance-based reduction in grade and removal actions, and adverse actions. The proposed rule would rescind certain regulatory changes made effective on November 16, 2020 and implements new statutory requirements for procedural and appeal rights for dual status National Guard technicians for certain adverse actions. OPM believes the proposed revisions would support implementation of an Executive Order to empower agencies to rebuild the career Federal workforce and protect the civil service rights of their employees, while preserving appropriate mechanisms for pursuing personnel actions where warranted.
