| 2012-2660 | Excepted Service-Appointment of Persons With Intellectual Disabilities, Severe Physical Disabilities, and Psychiatric Disabilities | Proposed Rule | The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is proposing to amend its regulations pertaining to the appointment of persons with disabilities. The proposed changes eliminate the requirement that an applicant supply a certification of job readiness and provide clarification on appointments under this authority. In addition, OPM is cognizant of a change in terminology as evinced, for example in "Rosa's Law," which Congress enacted in October of 2010. Although Rosa's Law is not applicable here, it has prompted us to reconsider our own use of terminology, and we propose to substitute the phrase "intellectual disability" for the phrase "mental retardation" throughout this Part, without any change in the intended coverage. | 2012-02-07 | 2012 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/02/07/2012-2660/excepted-service-appointment-of-persons-with-intellectual-disabilities-severe-physical-disabilities | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-02-07/pdf/2012-2660.pdf | Personnel Management Office | 406 | The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is proposing to amend its regulations pertaining to the appointment of persons with disabilities.
