Title 22 › Chapter 51— PANAMA CANAL › Subchapter I— ADMINISTRATION AND REGULATIONS › Part 2— Employees › Subpart ii— wage and employment practices › § 3664
The Panama Canal Commission must follow many parts of Title 5 of the U.S. Code that deal with federal personnel rules. That includes general agency rules, how employees are defined, whistleblower protection (section 2302(b)(8)), hiring preferences, pay offsets and garnishments, rules about holding two federal jobs, leave, severance and back pay, allowances, military leave for Reservists and National Guard, labor relations, limits on political activity, workers’ compensation, retirement (chapters 83 and 84), unemployment, life insurance, and health insurance. For whistleblower rules and rules about political activity, the Commission will set up how those rules are run and enforced in rules it makes together with the Office of Personnel Management. One item listed in the original law was later repealed.
