Abstract

The Office of Personnel Management is clarifying its withdrawal of a proposed rule published on December 17, 2020. The notice of proposed rulemaking, inter alia, proposed revising OPM's reduction-in-force regulations to prioritize performance over length of service when determining which employees will be retained in a RIF. OPM withdrew the proposed rule on March 12, 2021, but in an abundance of caution issues this clarification reiterating that the proposed rule is withdrawn.
