SUPPORT BULLETIN
EARLY RETIREMENT LEGISLATION
For a number of years, the Agency has studied carefully the
Civil Service Retirement program as it applied to Agency personnel
needs. It was determined that the retirement program for certain
employees should be improved. Aside from the additional special
requirements applicable to Agency employment, employees who
serve overseas are subject to essentially the same conditions of
se rvice which were the basis for the development of the Foreign
Service Retirement system. Our study led to the conclusion that the
adoption of a system similar to the Foreign Service Retirement system
would more nearly meet our own personnel requirements. Among
other things, the Foreign Service Act has more adequate provisions
for early retirement than is provided under the Civil Service Retire-
ment program.
A specific legislative proposal was prepared which would
provide certain Agency employees with retirement benefits similar
to those provided under the Foreign Service system. The proposal
also included authorization for the Director to adopt and apply to
certain Agency employees other provisions of law which are presently
applicable to Foreign Service personnel. A draft bill was cleared by
the Bureau of the Budget, the Civil Service Commission and other
