MEMORANDUM FOR: Director, Foreign Broadcast Information Service
Chief, Position Management
and Compensation Division
SUBJECT: GS-15 Allocation for Newly Established Bureau%
REFERENCE: Memo to C/PMCD from D/FBIS, dated 26 January 1982;
Subject: same
1. The Position Management and Compensation Division (PMCD)
has reviewed your request to establish new staff positions at the
new Swaziland Bureau. We concur with your request to establish
the Bureau Chief position as a temporary GS-15 and the Information
Officer - Foreign Broadcast as a GS-12; however, we do not concur
with the requested grades of the Deputy Chief position and the
Electronic Engineer. I have briefly outlined the basis for our
determinations below.
2. We will establish the Swaziland Bureau Chief position as
a GS-15, temporary allocation, on the basis of the complexity of
decisions, commitments and representational responsibilities of
the new Bureau Chief. This temporary allocation will cover the
first incumbent's tour of duty and at the completion of this tour,
the position will revert to a GS-14 with a "pending grade review"
suffix until such time as it can be audited. As we have done in
the past, we will approve temporary allocation determinations for
future new Bureau Chief positions on a case-by-case basis.
3. Based on the anticipated responsibilities, size,and the
structure of the new Swaziland Bureau, and the fact that regional
engineering support is available to the bureau, we have determined
that the grades of the remaining bureau positions should be placed
on the staffing complement as follows:
New, Info Officer - Foreign Broadcast, GS-12 (F-2)
New, Electronic Technician, GS-11
These positions will also be established with a "pending grade
review" suffix suggesting a re-evaluation at a later date when
the bureau becomes operational and the duties, functions, and
responsibilities of these three positions can be evaluated.
