Sec.  28.13  Special procedure for Workforce Restructuring Action.

    In the event of a Workforce Restructuring Action (WRA) resulting in 
an individual's separation from employment, an aggrieved employee may 
choose to file a petition directly with the Personnel Appeals Board, 
without first filing the charge with the PAB's Office of General Counsel 
pursuant to Sec.  28.11. Pursuant to Sec.  28.98, individuals raising 
discrimination issues in connection with a WRA action need not file a 
complaint with GAO's Office of Opportunity and Inclusiveness before 
pursuing a WRA challenge alleging discrimination, either by filing 
directly with the PAB or by filing a charge with the Board's Office of 
General Counsel.
