Schedule F was a federal executive-branch personnel classification created by an October 2020 executive order for certain policy-related positions in the competitive civil service.
History and activities
The classification was not implemented before January 2021 and was revoked by President Biden in January 2021. Trump’s 2025 administration renewed a related effort under a successor Schedule Policy/Career formulation.
Organization and documented relationships
This is a government personnel rule, not a private staffing company or part of the legal identity of Project 2025. Actual job reclassification requires review of the governing orders, civil-service rules and agency implementation.
