U.S.C. 552a, MSPB proposes to establish
a new system of records titled ‘‘Surveys
for Special Studies of the Civil Service.’’
This system of records is being
established in order to develop and
administer the Merit Principles Survey
(MPS), along with other surveys for
special studies of the civil service and
to evaluate and distribute the results of
such surveys. This system of records
contains information that MSPB
collects, maintains, and uses regarding
individuals who are potential or actual
survey respondents.
MSPB was instituted under the Civil
Service Reform Act of 1978 and
administers surveys under its general
authorities to conduct studies and
research on matters relevant to the
MSPs and Prohibited Personnel
Practices (PPPs). The statute (5 U.S.C.
1204(a)(3)) also authorizes a ‘‘special
studies’’ function, under which MSPB
has the authority to conduct studies
when it deems appropriate on the topics
it deems appropriate, so long as the
studies relate to ‘‘the civil service and
to other merit systems in the executive
branch[.]’’ This function enables MSPB
to independently conduct research and
present the subsequent findings to the
President, Congress, and other Federal
human capital stakeholders so that they
can have access to information to aid in
their decision-making processes.
MSPB established the MPS in support
of its statutory responsibility to assess
the health of Federal merit systems.
MSPB has conducted the MPS since
1983 as part of its statutory oversight
responsibilities (5 U.S.C. 1204(a)(3) and
5 U.S.C. 1204(e)(3)). The survey tracks
a variety of Federal workforce issues
related to the MSPs and PPPs, with
results reported to the President and
Congress and shared with Federal
policy-makers and decision-makers.
This survey differs from the Federal
Employee Viewpoint Survey
administered by the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) in several respects,
such as: A focus on MSPs and PPPs and
human resources policy and practice;
administration every few years instead
of annually; and a smaller sample, and
use of non-recurring questions to delve
into discrete topics of interest. MSPB
conducted Government-wide MPS
administrations as part of its program of
survey research in 1983, 1986, 1989,
1992, 1996, 2000, 2005, 2007, 2010, and
2016. In addition, MSPB has
administered and collected data from
other surveys, such as the 2007 Career
Advancement Survey, 2009 MSPB
Federal Telework Survey, and the 2011
Fair and Open Competition Survey.
The MPS and other surveys
conducted by MSPB are tools that
