330.503—Assessment of compliance with competitive principles.

As one factor in assessing an agency's compliance with competitive principles, OPM will consider the relationship between appointments from competitive examinations and subsequent position changes. When OPM finds that an agency has not complied with competitive principles, either in an individual case or on a program basis, OPM will require the agency to take appropriate corrective action.

Effective Date Note: At 75 FR 67593, Nov. 3, 2010, part 330 was revised, effective Mar. 3, 2011. For the convenience of the user, the revised text is set forth as follows: PART 330—RECRUITMENT, SELECTION, AND PLACEMENT (GENERAL) § 330.503 Ensuring agency compliance with the principles of open competition. OPM will review appointments made from competitive examinations and subsequent position changes to determine if agencies are complying with open competition principles. The fact that an agency waited 90 days to make the changes, as required under this subpart, is not an absolute protection. If OPM finds that an agency has not complied with these principles, either in an individual instance or on a program-wide basis, OPM will order an agency to correct the situation. Pt. 330, Nt.
