                                 H.R. 3023
   A bill to amend title 5, United States Code, to modify probationary
 periods with respect to positions within the competitive service and the
             Senior Executive Service, and for other purposes

  As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
                              on January, 12, 2016


H.R. 3023 would extend the probationary period for members of the senior executive
service from one year to two years and would require at least a two-year probationary
period for most members of the civil service. The bill also would require that federal
agencies add certain notifications regarding the terms of probationary periods to job
postings and to information provided to employees in such periods.

H.R. 3023 would not generally change the number of employees in the federal
government. Furthermore, the necessary tracking and administrative procedures regarding
probationary periods are already in place. Therefore, CBO estimates that implementing the
legislation would have no net budgetary effect.

Because enacting H.R. 3023 would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that, enacting H.R. 3023 would not increase net
direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year period
beginning in 2027.

H.R. 3023 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Dan Ready. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
