Civil Service Guidance on Transition to a New Presidential Term

Although there will not be a change in Administration as a result of this year's election, there will be transitions in departments and agencies as the President makes changes in his executive team. Therefore, the Office of Personnel Management has developed an information package for agency use in preparing for President Clinton's second term in office. The package provides guidance and addresses issues that relate to employees leaving the Administration, to employees being newly-appointed, and to the career civil service.

A copy of the material that was provided to heads of agencies and directors of personnel is now available in the Retirement and Insurance Forum on the OPM Mainstreet Bulletin Board.
