Employees

Salary Administration
1. The referenced Regulation outlines the basic pay-fixing
rules for initial hiring of employees assigned to General Schedule (GS)
positions. With the single personnel ceiling implementation, these
criteria will also apply to the hiring of Type I professional and tech-
nical contract employees. As with staff employees, the authority to
approve the hiring of these contract employees above the minimum rate
of the appropriate grade (in the case of an employee with no previous
government service) or to a higher step than the employee has pre-
viously held (in the case of transfer, reemployment or conversion)
rests with the Director of Personnel.
2. When a component wishes to hire a Type I, professional or
technical contract employee, at a within-grade step not consistent
with the referenced guidelines, prior approval of the Director of
Personnel must be obtained as outlined below:
a. For those cases where Staff Personnel Division (SPD)
initiates the security and medical clearance processing, a memorandum
containing the justification for within-grade hiring level will be
addressed to the Director of Personnel and forwarded to Staff Personnel
Division along with the request to initiate processing (Form 3804).
b. For those cases not processed through Staff Personnel
Division, the memorandum to the Director of Personnel will be sent
through the Chief, Contract Personnel Division (CPD) at the time the
component initiates clearance procedures.
3. As with the employment of staff personnel, preliminary dis-
cussions should be held with the applicant concerning salary, and a
statement included in the justification memorandum that the applicant
is willing to accept the offer, if approved. Under no circumstances
will a firm offer of a grade and step be made until approved by the
Director of Personnel.
