1. Reduce by half the time required to terminate federal managers and
employees for cause.

Make other improvements in the systems for dealing with poor performers.

In designing performance management programs as outlined in HRM03,
agencies should include methods through which the time frames for
terminating employees for cause will be reduced by half. To support this
effort, the director of OPM will develop legislation to change the
required time for notice of termination from 30 days to 15 days.  This
legislation should also require the waiting period for a within- grade
increase to be extended by the amount of time an employee's performance
does not meet expectations; that is, only the time that an employee's
performance meets expectations will be creditable toward the required
waiting period.
