Plain-English summary

Federal Employee Performance and Accountability Act of 2025 This bill establishes a pilot program making pay increases for certain federal employees contingent on job performance. Under the bill, each executive agency must identify employees to participate in the five-year pilot program from among employees classified at or above the GS-11 level and holding positions with clearly measurable performance criteria. Each agency must select 1%-10% of these employees to participate in the program. An agency may opt out if participation potentially risks national security or public safety.
