The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) provides a variety of data and statistical programs to inform the public and federal agencies about the civilian workforce. These resources are used for strategic human capital planning, policy development, and public transparency.

Core Data Programs

•	FedScope: FedScope is OPM's primary public-facing data portal, providing access to data from the Enterprise Human Resources Integration Statistical Data Mart (EHRI-SDM). It covers over 2 million federal civilian employees and includes information on:

o	Demographics: Age, gender, and race/ethnicity of the workforce.

o	Job Characteristics: Pay plan, grade, salary, occupation, and supervisory status.

o	Employment Dynamics: Data on hires, separations, promotions, and awards. FedScope offers both raw datasets in formats like CSV and interactive data cubes for analysis.
