NOAA Workforce Management Office
Serving NOAA's Most Valuable Asset - People
WFMO Payroll, Records and Timekeeping Division
The Payroll, Records and Timekeeping Division (PRTD) provides timely and accurate service to all employees by following guidelines, policies and procedures set forth by the Federal Government. We strive to continually improve and streamline our business practices in collaboration with NOAA line offices. We focus on providing quality customer service and support to all NOAA employees. The PRTD is staffed geographically across NOAA to ensure timely and quality services.
Payroll and Time Keeping: Provides a full range of operational payroll services, such as voluntary leave transfers, debt management/garnishments, payroll accounting, Awards Processing, Webta, and client specific customer service. We takes a proactive approach to ensuring that employees are paid accurately and on time, initiating problem resolution and interacting with employees, timekeepers, supervisors and NOAA line offices sometimes even before the affected employee is aware that there is a problem. We work closely with clients to meet their individual needs, identify areas requiring payroll staff intervention and/or monitoring, and to provide continuous feedback and resolution of payroll and T&A issues.
Customer questions and concerns can be e-mailed to: WFMO.pay@noaa.gov

Awards Processing: As an employee, you may be eligible to receive a Cash Award. A cash award is a one-time, lump-sum payment that is given for various reasons:
- A performance award (5-Level only) is a performance-based cash payment based on your rating of record for the current appraisal period.
- Performance Bonus/Pay Adjustment (Commerce Alternative Personnel System only) - Employees who receive performance rating scores of 40 or above are eligible to receive a performance bonus and/or pay adjustments.
- A Special Act Award is a cash award granted for one-time, non-recurring contributions, a scientific achievement, or an act of heroism.
- A Cash-in-Your-Account Award (CIYA) is a small cash award granted for going the extra mile in getting the job done. CIYA Awards are not in recognition of overall performance, but rather for specific instances of exemplary performance.
Please email award submissions to: awards@noaa.gov
Additional guidance and information is located on the WFMO Awards website.
Electronic Official Personnel Folders (eOPF): NOAA in conjunction with the Office of Personnel Management has implemented an E-Gov initiative to provide employees with easier and faster access to their Official Personnel Folder (OPF), the file containing the employment history of civilian Federal Government employees.
NOAA has converted each employee's OPF from a paper file to an eOPF (electronic file or electronic OPF). The eOPF system is an automated solution to manage the OPF process and allows each employee to have access to their individual OPF forms and information through the Internet.
