Sec. 5303. Annual adjustments to pay schedules
-STATUTE-
(a) Effective as of the first day of the first applicable pay
period beginning on or after January 1 of each calendar year, the
rates of basic pay for each statutory pay system shall be increased
by the percentage (rounded to the nearest one-tenth of 1 percent)
equal to one-half of 1 percentage point less than the percentage by
which the ECI for the base quarter of the year before the preceding
calendar year exceeds the ECI for the base quarter of the second
year before the preceding calendar year (if at all).
(b)(1) If, because of national emergency or serious economic
conditions affecting the general welfare, the President should
consider the pay adjustment which would otherwise be required by
subsection (a) in any year to be inappropriate, the President shall
-
(A) prepare and transmit to Congress before September 1 of the
preceding calendar year a plan for such alternative pay
adjustments as he considers appropriate, together with the
reasons therefor; and
(B) adjust the rates of pay of each statutory pay system, in
accordance with such plan, effective on the same day as the
increase under subsection (a) would otherwise take effect.
(2) In evaluating an economic condition affecting the general
welfare under this subsection, the President shall consider
pertinent economic measures including, but not limited to, the
Indexes of Leading Economic Indicators, the Gross National Product,
the unemployment rate, the budget deficit, the Consumer Price
Index, the Producer Price Index, the Employment Cost Index, and the
Implicit Price Deflator for Personal Consumption Expenditures.
(3) The President shall include in the report to Congress under
paragraph (1)(A) his assessment of the impact that the alternative
pay adjustments under this subsection will have on the Government's
ability to recruit and retain well-qualified employees.
(c) The rates of basic pay that take effect under this section -
(1) shall modify, supersede, or render inapplicable, as the
case may be, to the extent inconsistent therewith, any prior
rates of basic pay under the statutory pay system involved (as
last adjusted under this section or prior provisions of law); and
(2) shall be printed in the Federal Register and the Code of
Federal Regulations.
(d) An increase in rates of basic pay that takes effect under
this section is not an equivalent increase in pay within the
meaning of section 5335.
(e) This section does not impair any authority pursuant to which
rates of basic pay may be fixed by administrative action.
(f) Pay may not be paid, by reason of any provision of this
section (disregarding any comparability payment payable), at a rate
in excess of the rate of basic pay payable for level V of the
Executive Schedule.
(g) Any rate of pay under this section shall be initially
adjusted, effective on the effective date of the rate of pay, under
conversion rules prescribed by the President or by such agency or
agencies as the President may designate.

Sec. 5304. Locality-based comparability payments
-STATUTE-
(a) Pay disparities shall be identified and reduced as follows:
(1) Comparability payments shall be payable within each
locality determined to have a pay disparity greater than 5
percent.
(2)(A) The localities having pay disparities, and the size of
those disparities, shall, for purposes of any comparability
payment scheduled to take effect in any calendar year, be
determined in accordance with the appropriate report, as prepared
and submitted to the President under subsection (d)(1) for
purposes of such calendar year.
(B) Any computation necessary to determine the size of the
comparability payment to become payable for any locality in a
year (as well as any determination as to the size of any pay
disparity remaining after that comparability payment is made)
shall likewise be made using data contained in the appropriate
report (described in subparagraph (A)) so prepared and submitted
for purposes of such calendar year.
(3) Subject to paragraph (4), the amount of the comparability
payments payable under this subsection in a calendar year within
any locality in which a comparability payment is payable shall be
computed using such percentage as the President determines for
such locality under subsection (d)(2), except that -
(A) the percentage for the first calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than 1/5
of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(B) the percentage for the second calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than
3/10 of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(C) the percentage for the third calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than 2/5
of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(D) the percentage for the fourth calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than 1/2
of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(E) the percentage for the fifth calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than 3/5
of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(F) the percentage for the sixth calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than
7/10 of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(G) the percentage for the seventh calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than 4/5
of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent;
(H) the percentage for the eighth calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section may not be less than
9/10 of the amount needed to reduce the pay disparity of the
locality involved to 5 percent; and
(I) the percentage for the ninth calendar year in which any
amounts are payable under this section, and any year
thereafter, may not be less than the full amount necessary to
reduce the pay disparity of the locality involved to 5 percent.
(4) Nothing in this section shall be considered to preclude the
President, in his discretion, from adjusting comparability
payments to a level higher than the minimum level otherwise
required in a calendar year, including to the level necessary to
eliminate a locality's pay disparity completely.
(b) After the ninth calendar year (referred to in subsection
(a)(3)(I)), the level of comparability payments payable within such
locality may be reduced for any subsequent calendar year, but only
if, or to the extent that, the reduction would not immediately
create another pay disparity in excess of 5 percent within the
locality (taking into consideration any comparability payments
remaining payable).
(c)(1) The amount of the comparability payment payable within any
particular locality during a calendar year -
(A) shall be stated as a single percentage, which shall be
uniformly applicable to General Schedule positions within the
locality; and
(B) shall, for any employee entitled to receive a comparability
payment, be computed by applying that percentage to such
employee's scheduled rate of basic pay (or, if lower due to a
limitation on the rate payable, the rate actually payable),
subject to subsection (g).
(2) A comparability payment -
(A) shall be considered to be part of basic pay for purposes of
retirement under chapter 83 or 84, as applicable, life insurance
under chapter 87, and premium pay under subchapter V of chapter
55, and for such other purposes as may be expressly provided for
by law or as the Office of Personnel Management may by regulation
prescribe; and
(B) shall be paid in the same manner and at the same time as
the basic pay payable to such employee pursuant to any provision
of law outside of this section.
(3) Nothing in this subchapter shall be considered to permit or
require that any portion of a comparability payment be taken into
account for purposes of any adjustment under section 5303.
(4)(A) Only employees receiving scheduled rates of basic pay
(subject to any pay limitation which may apply) shall be eligible
for comparability payments under this section.
(B) Comparability payments shall not be payable for service
performed in any position which may not, under subsection
(f)(1)(A), be included within a pay locality.
(d) In order to carry out this section, the President shall -
(1) direct such agent as he considers appropriate to prepare
and submit to him annually, after considering such views and
recommendations as may be submitted under subsection (e) (but not
later than 13 months before the start of the calendar year for
purposes of which it is prepared), a report that -
(A) compares the rates of pay under the General Schedule
(disregarding any described in section 5302(8)(C)) (FOOTNOTE 1)
with the rates of pay generally paid to non-Federal workers for
the same levels of work within each pay locality, as determined
on the basis of appropriate surveys that shall be conducted by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics;
(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.
(B) based on data from such surveys, identifies each locality
in which a pay disparity exists and specifies the size of each
such pay disparity (before and after taking into consideration
any comparability payments payable);
(C) makes recommendations for appropriate comparability
payments, in conformance with applicable requirements of this
section; and
(D) includes the views and recommendations submitted under
subsection (e);
(2) after considering the report of his agent (including the
views and recommendations referred to in subsection (e)(2)(C),
provide for or adjust comparability payments in conformance with
applicable requirements of this section, effective as of the
beginning of the first applicable pay period commencing on or
after January 1 of the applicable year; and
(3) transmit to Congress a report of the actions taken under
paragraph (2) (together with a copy of the report submitted to
him by his agent, including the views and recommendations
referred to in subsection (e)(2)(C)) which shall -
(A) identify each pay locality;
(B) specify which localities have pay disparities in excess
of 5 percent, and the size of the disparity existing in each of
those localities, according to the pay agent's most recent
report under paragraph (1) (before and after taking into
consideration any comparability payments payable); and
(C) indicate the size of the respective comparability
payments (expressed as percentages) which will be in effect
under paragraph (2) for the various pay localities specified
under subparagraph (B) for the applicable calendar year.
(e)(1) The President shall establish a Federal Salary Council of
9 members, of whom -
(A) 3 shall be chosen from among persons generally recognized
for their impartiality, knowledge, and experience in the field of
labor relations and pay policy; and
(B) 6 shall be representatives of employee organizations which
represent substantial numbers of employees holding General
Schedule positions, and who shall be selected giving due
consideration to such factors as the relative numbers of
employees represented by the various organizations, except that
not more than 3 members of the Council at any one time shall be
from a single employee organization, council, federation,
alliance, association, or affiliation of employee organizations.
Members of the Council shall not receive pay by reason of their
service on the Council, nor shall members who are not otherwise
employees of the United States be considered employees by reason of
any such service. However, members under subparagraph (A) may be
paid expenses in accordance with section 5703. The President shall
designate one of the members to serve as Chairman of the Federal
Salary Council. One of the 3 members under subparagraph (A) may be
the Chairman of the Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee,
notwithstanding the restriction under section 5347(a)(1), and such
individual may also be designated to serve as Chairman of the
Federal Salary Council.
(2) The pay agent shall -
(A) provide for meetings with the Council and give thorough
consideration to the views and recommendations of the Council and
the individual views and recommendations, if any, of the members
of the Council regarding -
(i) the establishment or modification of pay localities;
(ii) the coverage of the surveys of pay localities conducted
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics under subsection (d)(1)(A)
(including, but not limited to, the occupations, establishment
sizes, and industries to be surveyed, and how pay localities
are to be surveyed);
(iii) the process of comparing the rates of pay payable under
the General Schedule with rates of pay for the same levels of
work performed by non-Federal workers; and
(iv) the level of comparability payments that should be paid
in order to eliminate or reduce pay disparities in accordance
with the requirements of this section;
(B) give thorough consideration to the views and
recommendations of employee organizations not represented on the
Council regarding the subjects in subparagraph (A)(i)-(iv); and
(C) include in its report to the President the views and
recommendations submitted as provided in this subsection by the
Council, by any member of the Council, and by employee
organizations not represented on the Council.
(f)(1) The pay agent may provide for such pay localities as the
pay agent considers appropriate, except that -
(A) each General Schedule position (excluding any outside the
continental United States, as defined in section 5701(6)) shall
be included with a pay locality; and
(B) the boundaries of pay localities shall be determined based
on appropriate factors which may include local labor market
patterns, commuting patterns, and practices of other employers.
(2)(A) The establishment or modification of any such boundaries
shall be effected by regulations which, notwithstanding subsection
(a)(2) of section 553, shall be promulgated in accordance with the
notice and comment requirements of such section.
(B) Judicial review of any regulation under this subsection shall
be limited to whether or not it was promulgated in accordance with
the requirements referred to in subparagraph (A).
(g)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), comparability
payments may not be paid at a rate which, when added to the rate of
basic pay otherwise payable to the employee involved, would cause
the total to exceed the rate of basic pay payable for level IV of
the Executive Schedule.
(2) The applicable maximum under this subsection shall be level
III of the Executive Schedule for -
(A) positions under subparagraphs (A)-(E) of subsection (h)(1);
and
(B) any positions under subsection (h)(1)(F) which the
President may determine.
(h)(1) For the purpose of this subsection, the term ''position''
means -
(A) a position to which section 5376 applies (relating to
certain senior-level positions);
(B) a Senior Executive Service position under section 3132;
(C) a position in the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Drug
Enforcement Administration Senior Executive Service under section
3151;
(D) a position to which section 5372 applies (relating to
administrative law judges appointed under section 3105);
(E) a position to which section 5372a applies (relating to
contract appeals board members); and
(F) a position within an Executive agency not covered under the
General Schedule or any of the preceding subparagraphs, the rate
of basic pay for which is (or, but for this section, would be) no
more than the rate payable for level IV of the Executive
Schedule;
but does not include -
(i) a position to which subchapter IV applies (relating to
prevailing rate systems);
(ii) a position as to which a rate of pay is authorized under
section 5377 (relating to critical positions); or
(iii) a position to which subchapter II applies (relating to
the Executive Schedule).
(2)(A) Notwithstanding subsection (c)(4) or any other provision
of this section, but subject to subparagraph (B) and paragraph (3),
upon the request of the head of an Executive agency with respect to
1 or more categories of positions, the President may provide that
each employee of such agency who holds a position within such

may, on his own initiative, provide that each employee who holds a
position within such category, and in the locality involved, shall
be entitled to receive comparability payments. No later than 30
days before an employee receives comparability payments under this
subparagraph, the President or the President's designee shall
submit a detailed report to the Congress justifying the reasons for
the extension, including consideration of recruitment and retention
rates and the expense of extending locality pay.
(3) Comparability payments under this subsection -
(A) may be paid only in any calendar year in which
comparability payments under the preceding provisions of this
section are payable with respect to General Schedule positions
within the same locality;
(B) shall take effect, within the locality involved, on the
first day of the first applicable pay period commencing on or
after such date as the President designates (except that no date
may be designated which would require any retroactive payments),
and shall remain in effect through the last day of the last
applicable pay period commencing during that calendar year;
(C) shall be computed using the same percentage as is
applicable, for the calendar year involved, with respect to
General Schedule positions within the same locality; and

consistent with the provisions of this section, governing the

Sec. 5305. Special pay authority
-STATUTE-
(a) Whenever the President finds that the Government's
recruitment or retention efforts with respect to 1 or more
occupations in 1 or more areas or locations are, or are likely to
become, significantly handicapped, due to any of the circumstances
described in subsection (b), he may establish for the areas or
locations involved, with respect to individuals in positions paid
under any of the pay systems referred to in subsection (c), higher
minimum rates of basic pay for 1 or more grades or levels,
occupational groups, series, classes, or subdivisions thereof, and
may make corresponding increases in all step rates of the pay range
for each such grade or level. However, a minimum rate so
established may not exceed the maximum pay rate prescribed by
statute for the grade or level by more than 30 percent, and no rate
may be established under this section (disregarding any amount
payable under subsection (g)) in excess of the rate of basic pay
payable for level V of the Executive Schedule. The President may
authorize the exercise of the authority conferred on him by this
section by the Office of Personnel Management or, in the case of
individuals not subject to the provisions of this title governing
appointment in the competitive service, by such other agency as he
may designate.
(b) The circumstances referred to in subsection (a) are -
(1) rates of pay offered by non-Federal employers being
significantly higher than those payable by the Government within
the area, location, occupational group, or other class of
positions under the pay system involved;
(2) the remoteness of the area or location involved;
(3) the undesirability of the working conditions or the nature
of the work involved (including exposure to toxic substances or
other occupational hazards); or
(4) any other circumstances which the President (or an agency
duly authorized or designated by the President in accordance with
the last sentence of subsection (a)) considers appropriate.
(c) Authority under subsection (a) may be exercised with respect
to positions paid under -
(1) a statutory pay system; or
(2) any other pay system established by or under Federal
statute for civilian positions within the executive branch.
(d) Within the limitations applicable under the preceding
provisions of this section, rates of pay established under this
section may be revised from time to time by the President or by
such agency as he may designate. The actions and revisions have
the force and effect of statute.
(e) An increase in a rate of basic pay established under this
section is not an equivalent increase in pay within the meaning of
section 5335.
(f) The rate of basic pay established under this section and
received by an individual immediately before a statutory increase,
which becomes effective prior to, on, or after the date of
enactment of the statute, in the pay schedule applicable to such
individual of any pay system specified in subsection (c) of this
section, shall be initially adjusted, effective on the effective
date of the statutory increase, under conversion rules prescribed
by the President or by such agency as the President may designate.
(g)(1) The benefit of any comparability payments under section
5304 shall be available to individuals receiving rates of basic pay
established under this section to such extent as the President (or
his designated agency) considers appropriate, subject to paragraph
(2) and subsection (h).
(2) Payments under this subsection may not be made if, or to the
extent that, when added to basic pay otherwise payable, such
payments would cause the total to exceed the rate of basic pay

be made with respect to any employee who dies before an amount
payable to such employee under subsection (b) is made.
(d)(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section,
subsection (a)(1) shall be applied by substituting ''the total

(A) is paid under section 5376 or 5383 of this title or section

(2) An agency described in this paragraph is any agency which,
for purposes of the calendar year involved, has been certified
under this subsection as having a performance appraisal system
which (as designed and applied) makes meaningful distinctions based
on relative performance.
(3)(A) The Office of Personnel Management and the Office of
Management and Budget jointly shall promulgate such regulations as
may be necessary to carry out this subsection, including the
criteria and procedures in accordance with which any determinations
under this subsection shall be made.

(C) Any certification or decertification under this subsection
shall be made by the Office of Personnel Management, with the
concurrence of the Office of Management and Budget.
(4) Notwithstanding any provision of paragraph (3), any

The provisos in paragraphs (39) and (46) of former section
2211(c) are carried into section 5315. The remainders of paragraphs
(39) and (46) are omitted but not repealed, see table III. The
parts of paragraphs (39) and (46) that are omitted but not repealed
provide that the positions of Director of Selective Service and
Associate Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall be
in Level III so long as the positions are held by the incumbents of
the positions on August 14, 1964. The omission of these provisions
from title 5, without repealing the corresponding provisions of the
source statute, in effect, leaves existing statute unchanged
insofar as it relates to the present incumbents of the positions of
Director of Selective Service and Associate Director of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
Standard changes are made to conform with the definitions
applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface
to the report.

-------------------------------
The deletion of paragraph (41) of 5 U.S.C. 5314 reflects the
abolition of the position of ''Deputy Administrator of the Housing
and Home Finance Agency'' by the act of September 9, 1965, Public
Law 89-174, sections 5(a), 9(c), 79 Stat. 669, 671.
In paragraph (49), the words ''In lieu of receiving compensation
at the rate prescribed by section 785(c) of this title'' are
omitted since the provisions of 20 U.S.C. 785(c) relating to
compensation are repealed by this bill; also see table II. The
wording further reflects the first sentence of 20 U.S.C. 954(d),
and conforms to 5 U.S.C. 5314 which applies to positions rather
than individuals.

this section, as follows:
''(1) If the officer or employee is receiving basic pay
immediately prior to the effective date of this section (see
Effective Date of 1967 Amendment note under this section) at one
of the rates of a grade in the General Schedule, he shall receive
a rate of basic pay at the corresponding rate in effect on and

''(2) If the officer or employee is receiving basic pay
immediately prior to the effective date of this section (see
Effective Date of 1967 Amendment note under this section) at a
rate between two rates of a grade in the General Schedule, he

corresponding rates in effect on and after such date.
''(3) If the officer or employee is receiving basic pay
immediately prior to the effective date of this section (see
Effective Date of 1967 Amendment note under this section) at a
rate in excess of the maximum rate for his grade, he shall
receive (A) the maximum rate for his grade in the new schedule,
or (B) his existing rate of basic pay increased by 4.5 per
centum, rounded to the next highest dollar, if such existing rate
as so increased is higher.
''(4) If the officer or employee, immediately prior to the
effective date of this section (see Effective Date of 1967
Amendment note under this section), is receiving, pursuant to
section 2(b)(4) of the Federal Employees Salary Increase Act of
1955, an existing aggregate rate of pay determined under section
208(b) of the Act of September 1, 1954, (68 Stat. 1111), plus
subsequent increases authorized by law, he shall receive an
aggregate rate of pay equal to the sum of his existing aggregate
rate of pay on the day preceding the effective date of this
section, plus the amount of increase made by this section in the
maximum rate of his grade, until (i) he leaves his position, or
(ii) he is entitled to receive aggregate pay at a higher rate by
reason of the operation of this Act or any other provision of
law; but, when such position becomes vacant, the aggregate rate
of pay of any subsequent appointee thereto shall be fixed in
accordance with applicable provisions of law. Subject to clauses
(i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence of this
subparagraph, the amount of the increase provided by this section
shall be held and considered for the purposes of section 208(b)
of the Act of September 1, 1954, to constitute a part of the
existing rate of pay of the employee.
''(5) If the officer or employee, at any time during the period
beginning on the effective date of this section (see Effective
Date of 1967 Amendment note under this section), and ending on
the date of enactment of this title (Dec. 16, 1967), was promoted
from one grade under the General Schedule contained in section

section) to another such grade at a rate which is above the
minimum rate thereof, his rate of basic pay shall be adjusted
retroactively from the effective date of this section to the date
on which he was so promoted, on the basis of the rate which he
was receiving during the period from such effective date to the
date of such promotion and, from the date of such promotion, on
the basis of the rate for that step of the appropriate grade of
the General Schedule contained in the amendment made by
subsection (a) of this section (amending the section) which
corresponds numerically to the step of the grade of the General
Schedule to which such officer or employee was promoted as in
effect (without regard to this title) at the time of such
promotion.
''(6) If the officer or employee, at any time during the period
beginning on the effective date of this section and ending on the
date of enactment of this title (Dec. 16, 1967) became subject to
the General Schedule and his rate of basic pay was set above the
minimum rate of the grade on the basis of a previously earned
rate above such minimum rate, his rate of basic pay shall be
adjusted retroactively to the date on which he became subject to
the General Schedule on the basis of the rate of the appropriate
grade of the General Schedule contained in this section which
corresponds numerically to the rate of the grade at which the pay
of such officer or employee was set at the time he became subject
to the General Schedule.''

PART II - RATE OF MONTHLY CADET OR MIDSHIPMAN PAY
The rate of monthly cadet or midshipman pay authorized by section
203(c) of title 37, United States Code, is $764.40.
Note: As a result of the enactment of sections 602-694 (604) of
Public Law 105-85 (see Tables for classification), the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998, the Secretary of
Defense now has the authority to adjust the rates of basic
allowances for subsistence and housing. Therefore, these
allowances are no longer adjusted by the President in conjunction
with the adjustment of basic pay for members of the uniformed
services. Accordingly, the tables of allowances included in
previous orders are not included here.

Sec. 5334. Rate on change of position or type of appointment;
regulations
-STATUTE-
(a) The rate of basic pay to which an employee is entitled is
governed by regulations prescribed by the Office of Personnel
Management in conformity with this subchapter and chapter 51 of
this title when -
(1) he is transferred from a position in the legislative,
judicial, or executive branch to which this subchapter does not
apply;
(2) he is transferred from a position in the legislative,
judicial, or executive branch to which this subchapter applies to
another such position;
(3) he is demoted to a position in a lower grade;
(4) he is reinstated, reappointed, or reemployed in a position
to which this subchapter applies following service in any
position in the legislative, judicial, or executive branch;
(5) his type of appointment is changed;
(6) his employment status is otherwise changed; or
(7) his position is changed from one grade to another grade.
For the purpose of this subsection, an individual employed by the
Appalachian Regional Commission under section 106(2) of the
Appalachian Regional Development Act of 1965 (FOOTNOTE 1) (40
U.S.C. App.), who was a Federal employee immediately prior to such
employment by a commission and within 6 months after separation
from such employment is employed in a position to which this
subchapter applies, shall be treated as if transferred from a
position in the executive branch to which this subchapter does not
apply.
(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.
(b) An employee who is promoted or transferred to a position in a
higher grade is entitled to basic pay at the lowest rate of the
higher grade which exceeds his existing rate of basic pay by not
less than two step-increases of the grade from which he is promoted
or transferred. If, in the case of an employee so promoted or
transferred who is receiving basic pay at a rate in excess of the
maximum rate of his grade, there is no rate in the higher grade
which is at least two step-increases above his existing rate of
basic pay, he is entitled to -
(1) the maximum rate of the higher grade; or
(2) his existing rate of basic pay, if that rate is the higher.
If an employee so promoted or transferred is receiving basic pay at
a rate saved to him under subchapter VI of this chapter on
reduction in grade, he is entitled to -
(A) basic pay at a rate two steps above the rate which he would
be receiving if subchapter VI of this chapter were not applicable
to him; or
(B) his existing rate of basic pay, if that rate is the higher.
(c) An employee in the legislative branch who is paid by the
Secretary of the Senate or the Chief Administrative Officer of the
House of Representatives, and who has completed two or more years
of service as such an employee, and a Member of the Senate or House
of Representatives who has completed two or more years of service
as such a Member, may, on appointment to a position to which this
subchapter applies, have his initial rate of pay fixed -
(1) at the minimum rate of the appropriate grade; or
(2) at a step of the appropriate grade that does not exceed the
highest previous rate of pay received by him during that service
in the legislative branch.
(d) The rate of pay established for a teaching position as
defined by section 901 of title 20 held by an individual who
becomes subject to subsection (a) of this section is deemed
increased by an amount determined under regulations which the
Secretary of Defense shall prescribe for the determination of the
yearly rate of pay of the position. The amount by which a rate of
pay is increased under the regulations may not exceed the amount
equal to 20 percent of that rate of pay.
(e) An employee of a county committee established pursuant to
section 8(b) of the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act
(16 U.S.C. 590h(b)) may, on appointment to a position subject to
this subchapter, have the initial rate of basic pay of the employee
fixed at -
(1) the lowest rate of the higher grade that exceeds the rate
of basic pay of the employee with the county committee by not
less than 2 step-increases of the grade from which the employee
was promoted, if the Federal Civil Service position under this
subchapter is at a higher grade than the last grade the employee
had while an employee of the county committee;
(2) the same step of the grade as the employee last held during
service with the county committee, if the Federal Civil Service
position under this subchapter is at the same grade as the last
grade the employee had while an employee of the county committee;
or
(3) the lowest step of the Federal grade for which the rate of
basic pay is equal to or greater than the highest previous rate
of pay of the employee, if the Federal Civil Service position
under this subchapter is at a lower grade than the last grade the
employee had while an employee of the county committee.
(f) An employee of a nonappropriated fund instrumentality of the
Department of Defense or the Coast Guard described in section
2105(c) who moves, without a break in service of more than 3 days,
to a position in the Department of Defense or the Coast Guard,
respectively, that is subject to this subchapter, may have such
employee's initial rate of basic pay fixed at the minimum rate of
the appropriate grade or at any step of such grade that does not
exceed the highest previous rate of basic pay received by that
employee during the employee's service described in section
2105(c). In the case of a nonappropriated fund employee who is
moved involuntarily from such nonappropriated fund instrumentality
without a break in service of more than 3 days and without
substantial change in duties to a position that is subject to this
subchapter, the employee's pay shall be set at a rate (not above
the maximum for the grade, except as may be provided for under
section 5365) that is not less than the employee's rate of basic
pay under the nonappropriated fund instrumentality immediately
prior to so moving.

-STATUTE-
(a) An employee paid on an annual basis, and occupying a
permanent position within the scope of the General Schedule, who
has not reached the maximum rate of pay for the grade in which his
position is placed, shall be advanced in pay successively to the
next higher rate within the grade at the beginning of the next pay
period following the completion of -
(1) each 52 calendar weeks of service in pay rates 1, 2, and 3;
(2) each 104 calendar weeks of service in pay rates 4, 5, and
6; or
(3) each 156 calendar weeks of service in pay rates 7, 8, and
9;
subject to the following conditions:
(A) the employee did not receive an equivalent increase in pay
from any cause during that period; and
(B) the work of the employee is of an acceptable level of
competence as determined by the head of the agency.
(b) Under regulations prescribed by the Office of Personnel
Management, the benefit of successive step-increases shall be
preserved for employees whose continuous service is interrupted in
the public interest by service with the armed forces or by service
in essential non-Government civilian employment during a period of
war or national emergency.
(c) When a determination is made under subsection (a) of this
section that the work of an employee is not of an acceptable level
of competence, the employee is entitled to prompt written notice of
that determination and an opportunity for reconsideration of the
determination within his agency under uniform procedures prescribed
by the Office of Personnel Management. If the determination is
affirmed on reconsideration, the employee is entitled to appeal to
the Merit Systems Protection Board. If the reconsideration or
appeal results in a reversal of the earlier determination, the new
determination supersedes the earlier determination and is deemed to
have been made as of the date of the earlier determination. The
authority of the Office to prescribe procedures and the entitlement
of the employee to appeal to the Board do not apply to a
determination of acceptable level of competence made by the
Librarian of Congress.
(d) An increase in pay granted by statute is not an equivalent
increase in pay within the meaning of subsection (a) of this
section.
(e) This section does not apply to the pay of an individual
appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of

(f) In computing periods of service under subsection (a) in the

instrumentality of the Department of Defense or the Coast Guard
described in section 2105(c) to a position under the Department of
Defense or the Coast Guard, respectively, that is subject to this

Sec. 5341. Policy
-STATUTE-
It is the policy of Congress that rates of pay of prevailing rate
employees be fixed and adjusted from time to time as nearly as is
consistent with the public interest in accordance with prevailing
rates and be based on principles that -
(1) there will be equal pay for substantially equal work for
all prevailing rate employees who are working under similar
conditions of employment in all agencies within the same local
wage area;
(2) there will be relative differences in pay within a local
wage area when there are substantial or recognizable differences
in duties, responsibilities, and qualification requirements among
positions;
(3) the level of rates of pay will be maintained in line with
prevailing levels for comparable work within a local wage area;
and
(4) the level of rates of pay will be maintained so as to
attract and retain qualified prevailing rate employees.
