Attachment 4
Proposed Replacement of Worldwide and Nationwide Special Rate Schedules
(December 2007 Central Personnel Data File Data)
The U.S Office of Personnel Management (OPM) proposes to break each nationwide and worldwide special rate schedule into (1) a schedule covering the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia, (2) schedules covering the nonforeign areas of Alaska, American Samoa, Guam, Hawaii, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands, and for worldwide schedules, (3) a schedule covering all foreign areas. These changes will allow OPM and agencies to use the special rate program to respond to staffing and labor market situations on a more localized basis.
