The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is the independent agency for the federal civil service as a whole — effectively the government's HR department. It runs hiring, classification, and pay systems, retirement benefits (pensions), and health-insurance programs.
It also sets policies on hiring standards and work arrangements (such as remote work). As civil-service questions resurface with each change of administration and reform effort, OPM is the body that carries out the practical work.
