SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
leads Federal agencies in shaping human resources management systems to
effectively recruit, develop, manage and retain a high quality and
diverse workforce. Performance measurement surveys are valuable tools
to gather information from our customers so we can design and implement
new ways to improve our performance to meet their needs. This
collection request includes surveys that we currently use or plan to
use during the next three years to measure our performance in providing
services to meet our customer needs. The survey instruments include
direct mail, telephone contact, focus groups and web exit surveys. Our
customers include the general public, Federal benefit recipients,
Federal agencies and Federal employees. We estimate 272,100 performance
measurement surveys will be completed in the next 3 years. The time
estimate varies from 15 minutes to 20 minutes to complete. The
estimated burden is 75,575 hours.
U.S. Office of Personnel Management.
