Merit Systems Protection Board

The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) serves as a guardian of Federal merit systems, ensuring the protection of Merit System Principles and promoting an effective workforce free from Prohibited Personnel Practices. Established under the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, the MSPB adjudicates employee appeals, playing a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the executive branch workforce.

In addition to resolving employee disputes, the MSPB provides valuable resources, including educational materials on merit system principles and guidance on prohibited personnel practices. Through its studies, publications, and information services, the MSPB aims to enhance the understanding and management of the Federal civil service system.
