    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.

[[Page 916]]


    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 year-end 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. Eighty-two 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.

    This appropriation provides agencywide audit, investigative, 
evaluation, inspection, and administrative sanction functions to 
identify management and administrative deficiencies which may create 
conditions for fraud, waste and mismanagement. 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.

                 Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays

  Budget Authority..................                                -278
  Outlays...........................                                -278

Total:
  Budget Authority..................      38,604      39,858      41,754
  Outlays...........................      38,435      39,709      41,600
                                    ====================================

    This fund: (1) pays annuities to retired employees or their 
survivors; (2) makes refunds to separated employees for amounts withheld 
and to beneficiaries of employees who died before retirement or before 
annuities equaled the amount withheld; and (3) pays expenses of the 
Office of Personnel Management and the Merit Systems Protection Board 
for administering the program. 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 
CSRS-covered 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.

    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. Numbers of participants at the 
end of each fiscal year are as follows:

                                     1995 actual  1996 est.   1997 est.
Active employees....................   2,282,000   2,254,000   2,225,000
Annuitants..........................   1,771,000   1,794,000   1,815,000
                                    ------------------------------------

                                    ====================================

    In determining a biweekly subscription rate to cover program costs, 
one percent is added for administrative expense and three percent is 
added for a contingency reserve held by OPM for each carrier. OPM is 
authorized to transfer unused administrative reserve funds to the 
contingency reserve.

    In accordance with P.L. 103-66, this schedule includes the following 
adjustments: (1) the ``Phantom Big 6'' formula for determining the 
maximum Government contribution toward FEHB premiums has been extended 
through the 1996 contract year; (2) in contract years 1997 and 1998, the 
average premium for the indemnity plan in the ``Phantom Big 6'' formula 
will be modified to account for the average premium

[[Page 924]]
increase in the remaining ``Big 5'' plans minus one percentage point; 
(3) beginning in the 1999 contract year, the maximum government 
contribution will be 60 percent of the average of the premiums for the 
remaining ``Big 5'' plans; (4) Medicare Part B fee limits have been 
applied to all FEHB annuitants; and (5) the Postal Service will make 
additional payments of $116 million per year for fiscal years 1996, 
1997, and 1998 to cover the cost of past retiree health benefits.

    The REHB fund is available without fiscal year limitation. The 
amounts contributed by the Government are paid into the fund from annual 
appropriations. The number of participants at the end of each fiscal 
year are as follows:

                                     1995 actual  1996 est.   1997 est.
Uniform plan........................       2,610       2,000       1,000
Private plans.......................       9,173       8,000       7,000
                                    ------------------------------------
    Total...........................      11,783      10,000       8,000

    Financing.--The funds are financed by: (1) withholdings from active 
employees and annuitants; (2) agency contributions for active employees, 
appropriated to agencies; (3) Government contributions for annuitants 
appropriated to OPM; and (4) contributions made by the United States 
Postal Service in accordance with the provisions of Public Law 101-508 
and Public Law 103-66.

    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.
