Outlays ........................................................................... 111 99 88 92 87 88 89.00 90.00 The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is responsible for personnel management functions which include the following activities: Employment service.—The Employment Service Program operates a nationwide system of employment information and assists agencies in managing the dynamics of their work force—recruitment, hiring, internal placement, promotion, and downsizing—through broad policy principles, technical assistance, research, automated systems, and examination services. These operations are carried out through a network of Service Centers throughout the country. Program performance.—The Employment Service’s performance management program consists of program goals, customer service standards, and performance measures. It seeks to provide accurate, timely, accessible employment information to job seekers; high quality, cost-effective examining services to agencies; and simple, effective and merit based staffing policies for the Federal government. Surveys conducted in 1995 showed that 87 percent of agency customers rated staffing and recruiting products ‘‘4’’ or better on an increasing 1–5 scale. Surveys of the public on courtesy, timeliness, responsiveness and knowledge found 83 to 95 percent ‘‘satisfied’’ or ‘‘very satisfied’’. An average of 82 percent of users of various automated job information systems indicated they got the information they needed. Executive resources.—This activity provides governmentwide program leadership, policy direction and technical assistance on all aspects of the Senior Executive Service personnel system and comparable executive systems. 915 916 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1997 Federal Funds—Continued General and special funds—Continued SALARIES AND EXPENSES—Continued (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF TRUST FUNDS)—Continued Retirement and insurance.—This activity administers retirement and insurance programs for Federal employees and retired Federal employees. These programs include the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, the Employees Life Insurance Fund, and the Employees and Retired Employees Health Benefits Funds. Program performance.—Retirement and insurance programs have measured workloads and outcomes, including using surveys, for some time. Customer service standards and yearend reports on performance were added this past year. In the retirement area, OPM reduced the time to make a first interim annuity payment from 11.5 days in 1994 to 8 days in 1995. Finalizing an annuity account dropped from 89 days to 79 days for the same period. Adjudication of CSRS annuity claims error rates dropped from 7 percent to 6 percent in those years. Customer surveys revealed that 90 percent of new annuitants were ‘‘generally’’ or ‘‘very’’ satisfied with OPM’s processing of their retirement application. Eightytwo percent of those surveyed said OPM did a ‘‘good’’ to ‘‘very good’’ job in providing professional and personalized information about their retirement application. Ninety percent of survivors of deceased retirees applying for benefits were ‘‘generally’’ or ‘‘very’’ satisfied with efforts to streamline paperwork. Seventy-seven percent of established customers said they were ‘‘generally’’ or ‘‘very’’ satisfied with how actions on their accounts were handled, and 83 percent of both new and established beneficiaries felt that OPM was courteous and helpful when reached by telephone. In the insurance area, survey respondents indicated that having performance standards was important, and that they were ‘‘generally satisfied’’ with services provided, rating them between 4.0 and 4.4 on an ascending scale of 5. The surveys and measures also revealed areas where service levels need to be improved. Telephone contacts and timeliness and quality of disputed insurance claims decisions were the most prominent areas identified for improvement. OPM is now taking steps to address both of these areas. Investigations.—This activity focuses on assuring applicant and appointee fitness and suitability. Human resources systems.—This activity includes: (a) developing and implementing pay and leave administration policy and evaluating the effectiveness of alternative compensation systems; (b) managing employee relations and promoting labor-management partnerships; (c) developing classification policies and systems and designing flexible alternatives to current systems; (d) promoting and providing state-of-the-art data systems for workforce information to support and inform policy decision-making, and providing technical assistance for streamlining personnel recordkeeping and processing procedures; (e) facilitating and supporting Federal work and family programs; and (f) providing policy guidance and management assistance in support of agency human resource development programs. Merit systems oversight and effectiveness.—This activity includes: (a) direct oversight of human resources management (HRM) in Federal agencies through various methods, including on-site evaluation; (b) assisting agencies in developing merit-based internal HRM accountability systems which support mission accomplishment; (c) assessing the effectiveness of governmentwide HRM policies and programs; (d) testing and evaluating innovative Federal HRM practices and systems, including demonstration projects under 5 U.S.C. Chapter 47; and (e) administering parts of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Administrative services.—This activity includes: OPM personnel and equal employment opportunity; security, facilities, telecommunications, publishing, acquisitions, and information resources management to support all OPM programs. Executive and other services.—This activity includes: executive direction; policy development; legal advice and representation; public affairs; legislative activities; financial management; and the operating expenses of the President’s Commission on White House Fellows. Reimbursable programs.—The OPM performs reimbursable work at the request of other agencies. OPM also provides administrative, information resources management, and executive services to other OPM accounts on a reimbursable basis.

The audits function provides internal agency audit, insurance audit, and contract audit services. Contract audits provide professional advice to agency contracting officials on accounting and financial matters regarding the negotiation, award, administration, repricing, and settlement of contracts. Internal audits review and evaluate all facets of agency operations, including financial statements. Evaluation and inspection services provide detailed technical evaluations of agency operations. Insurance audits review the operations of health and life insurance carriers, health care providers, and insurance subscribers. The investigative function provides for the detection and investigation of improper and illegal activities involving programs, personnel, and operations. Administrative sanctions debar from participation in the health insurance program those health care providers whose conduct may pose a threat to the financial integrity of the program itself or to the well-being of insurance program enrollees. These Inspector General activities resulted in recoveries in excess of $48 million in FY 1995.

Executive resources.—OPM manages the President’s quality awards program and conducts residential and non-residential programs for Federal executives and managers to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Federal programs. DOD testing.—OPM conducts military entrance exams for the Department of Defense (DOD). Employment service.—OPM delivers employment information, examining services, automated staffing, and related human resource management services to Federal agencies nationwide. Investigations.—OPM conducts National Agency Check and Inquiry cases and background security investigations for Federal agencies on a reimbursable basis. To the extent that OPM is required to pay a fee to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for name and fingerprint checks, agencies are required to reimburse OPM for such fees through the revolving fund. Human resources systems.—OPM provides training management assistance to agencies in support of their human resource development programs. This schedule reflects the reduction in budget authority and outlays resulting from the proposal to increase employee contributions and delay cost-of-living adjustments.

The fund covers two Federal civilian retirement systems: the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal Employees’ Retirement System (FERS). CSRS is basically a defined benefit plan, covering Federal employees hired prior to 1984. CSRS participants do not participate in the Social Security system. FERS is a three-tiered pension program that uses Social Security as a base, provides an additional basic benefit, and includes a thrift savings plan. FERS covers employees hired after 1983 and formerly CSRScovered employees who elected to join FERS. This schedule reflects the delay of cost-of-living adjustments for CSRS and FERS annuitants until March 1 in 1995 and 1996, as required by P.L. 103–66, The Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993. This schedule also reflects the proposal to limit pay increases in 1997. 1995 actual Active employees .........................................................................

This display combines the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) fund and the Retired Employees Health Benefit (REHB) fund. The FEHB fund provides for the cost of health benefits for: (1) active employees; (2) employees who retired after June 1960, or their survivors; (3) those annuitants transferred from the REHB program as authorized by Public Law 93–246; and (4) the related expenses of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in administering the program. The REHB fund, created by the Retired Employees Health Benefits Act of 1960, provides for: (1) the cost of health benefits for retired employees and survivors who enroll in a Government-sponsored uniform health benefits plan; (2) the contribution to retired employees and survivors who retain or purchase private health insurance; and (3) expenses of OPM in administering the program. Budget program.—The balance of the EHB fund is available for payments without fiscal year limitation.

Operating results.—Funds made available to carriers but not used to pay claims in the current period are carried forward as special reserves for use in subsequent periods. OPM maintains a contingency reserve, funded by employee and Government contributions, that may be used to defray future cost increases or provide increased benefits. OPM makes payments to carriers from this reserve whenever carrier-held reserves fall below levels prescribed by OPM regulations or when carriers can demonstrate good cause such as unexpected claims experience or variations from expected community rates.
