5 CFR 831.1712(a)(2)(2) The number of hours per pay period to be worked by an employee serving in a comparable position on a full-time basis.

5 CFR 831.1712(b)(b) The number of officially established hours per pay period to be worked by an employee in phased retirement status must equal one-half the number of hours the phased retiree would have been scheduled to work had the phased retiree remained in a full-time work schedule and not elected to enter phased retirement status. These hours make up the officially established part-time work schedule of the phased retiree and exclude any additional hours worked under § 831.1715(h).
