**(a)** The Office of Personnel Management, after consulting the agencies, shall prepare standards for placing positions in their proper classes and grades. The Office may make such inquiries or investigations of the duties, responsibilities, and qualification requirements of positions as it considers necessary for this purpose. The agencies, on request of the Office, shall furnish information for and cooperate in the preparation of the standards. In the standards, which shall be published in such form as the Office may determine, the Office shall—

(3) set forth the grades in which the classes have been placed by the Office.

It is the purpose of this chapter to provide a plan for classification of positions whereby—
(1) in determining the rate of basic pay which an employee will receive—
(A) the principle of equal pay for substantially equal work will be followed; and
(B) variations in rates of basic pay paid to different employees will be in proportion to substantial differences in the difficulty, responsibility, and qualification requirements of the work performed and to the contributions of employees to efficiency and economy in the service; and
(2) individual positions will, in accordance with their duties, responsibilities, and qualification requirements, be so grouped and identified by classes and grades, as defined by [section 5102 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title5-section5102&num=0&edition=prelim), and the various classes will be so described in published standards, as provided by [section 5105 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title5-section5105&num=0&edition=prelim), that the resulting position-classification system can be used in all phases of personnel administration.
