OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT ISSUES RULE: REDUCTION IN FORCE; CORRECTION

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 -- Office Of Personnel Management has issued a rule called: Reduction in Force; Correction.

The rule was published in the Federal Register on Sept. 15 by Jerson Matias, Federal Register Liaison.

Summary: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Registeron August 3, 2026, and became effective on September 2, 2026. That rule revised OPM's reduction in force regulations and made related revisions to the Career Transition Assistance Plan (CTAP) regulations. An amendatory instruction in the rule inadvertently resulted in the removal of two paragraphs from the definition of "displaced". This document restores those paragraphs.
