Classification

DCPAS Classification adjudicates first level classification and wage grade appeals, advisory decisions, and request for reconsideration of decisions rendered by regional offices. We determine the appropriate title, pay plan, occupational series or grade of the employee's official position. We establish the principle of providing equal pay for substantially equal work. We provide a definition of each grade in the General Schedule. The two common formats of classification standards are:

• Narrative ⎯ Standards describe the nature of work and level of responsibility for each grade covered by the standard. This requires the user to look at work as a whole and select the most appropriate overall grade.
• Factor Evaluation System (FES) Format — Standards describe covered work in terms of individual factors essential to determining the difficulty of assigned work. This requires the user to select the proper level for each factor to determine the overall grade.

Phase Retirement is a HR tool that will allow full-time employees to work a part-time schedule and draw partial retirement benefits during employment. It is also another tool to enable agencies to manage their workforce, promote best practices, and encourage experienced employees to spend some time mentoring the next generation of experts.

Participation is voluntary, and requires the mutual consent of both the employee and employing agency. In order to participate, an individual must be a full-time employee for the preceding three years. Under CSRS, the individual must be eligible for immediate retirement with at least 30 years of service at age 55, or with 20 years of service at age 60. Under FERS, the individual must be eligible for immediate retirement with at least 30 years of service at the minimum retirement age of 55-57 depending upon year of birth, or with 20 years of service at age 60.

Section 100121 of Public Law 112-141, the "Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act," or "MAP-21" approved on July 6, 2012, authorizes this tool.
