S. 1330 would direct the Office of Personnel Management to oversee programs across the government aimed at developing skills that would qualify employees for new jobs. Under the bill, at the end of their training, employees could return to their previous job or transfer to a new position at the same grade that uses their newly acquired skills. The Government Accountability Office would be required to report on the program within three years. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1330 would have an insignificant effect on direct spending and no effect on revenues over the 2023-2032 period. CBO has not estimated the discretionary costs of implementing the bill. The bill contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
