The Office of Personnel Management has developed and maintains a document
that includes all of the authorities available to all Federal agencies
and how they can be used to manage the challenges that all agencies face
when attempting to recruit and retain a highly qualified workforce.
The document is written in plain English:
Human Resources Flexibilities and Authorities in the Federal
Government
CAUTION: Some pointers link to servers that are not
owned or maintained by the U.S. Government, i.e., servers with
domains containing extensions other than "...gov"
or "...mil" in the Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
or Internet address. The Government assumes no responsibility for,
nor does it endorse, the information contained on those servers.
Documents retrieved from the non- gov/mil Internet sites should be
verified with the specific federal contracting activity in question.
Use of the Internet by the federal acquisition community is growing
rapidly. Please inform us of additional Internet sites serving
federal procurement. Send all comments and suggestions to: NAIS.Support@nasa.gov.
