[quote=Anonymous]"Removal" is what firing is called in the federal government.

There is removal for performance and removal for conduct.  Remo

Each has different standards and procedures.  Removal for performance requires a lengthy process and is more difficult because the employee has to have had documented unsatisfactory performance appraisals and a Performance Improvement Plan that he/she failed.

Removal for conduct requires a removable offense (something serious), usually a record of progressive discipline unless the offense is extremely serious, plus a proposal to remove and a decision to remove, and the opportunity respond to the proposal.  This process takes time, at least 45 days.

With each of these processes, the removed employee has the right to appeal.

Not every Agency has a table of penalties.  Ours does not.

Often the charge for conduct is generic like "Conduct Unbecoming a Federal Employee" so you are not going to see something online, OP.

Google Merit Systems Protection Board and look at their cases.
