    • Merit Principles Survey 2016 Data

    Metadata Updated: June 28, 2025

    MPS contains a combination of core items that MSPB tracks over time and special-purpose items developed to support a particular special study. This survey differs from the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey administered by OPM in several respects, including: a focus on merit system principles and Governmentwide civil service issues; administration every few years instead of annually; and a smaller sample. Agency participation in the MPS was mandatory, but individual response to the survey was voluntary.
