Comments on: OPM Will Release New Retirement Statements http://www.executivegov.com/2010/03/opm-will-release-new-retirement-statements/ Thu, 09 Sep 2010 21:46:10 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Denver2009 http://www.executivegov.com/2010/03/opm-will-release-new-retirement-statements/comment-page-1/#comment-1290 Denver2009 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 23:20:42 +0000 http://www.executivegov.com/?p=3183#comment-1290 It seems as though the federal retirement and FEHB programs have outgrown the OPM and should be transferred or re-established in a separate agency/corporation. The OPM needs to get its house in order and get back to its primary mission which is in need of attention - fixing the "broken" federal employment process. But just about every other federal personnel program needs attention, as in oversight, corrective action, consistency, etc. Federal pay for example has become highly politicized based on gossip, hearsay and innuendo. The OPM could have stoped this early on but chose to do what continues to do - nothing. Stop hiring CPAs and MBAs at the OPM and start hiring SMEs.
