MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD:
In the past Transaction's and Records Branch has operated
on the basis that when an employee becomes entitled to two
pay changes (promotion, WGI, OSI) at the same time, the
changes are to be processed in the order which gives him/her
the maximum benefit. This was also done when an action was
being processed on the same Effective Date as the Legislative
Pay Increase.
When the Legislative Pay Increase for October 4, 1981
was effected, the special rate schedules were not given the
4.8% increase. Also in the GSC and GSH schedules the grade
six was deleted and the GSI grade five was deleted. There
were 9 employees in the GSC-06 grade; 1 employee in the
GSH-06 grade and 1 employee in the GSI-05 grade. Transactions
and Records Branch prepared actions on all the employees
using the simultaneous ruling along with the regular ruling
of discontinuing special rates which states that no employee
shall have his pay reduced because of that action. "If the
employee is receiving a rate of basic pay equal to one of the
rates in the regular rate range for his grade or level, the
Agency shall fix his basic pay at that rate."
Example: GSC-06-1 = $14128
GS -06-2 = $14128
Since we received a Legislative Pay Increase effective that
same date, 04 October 1981, the employee would first have his
schedule fixed and then receive the 4.8% increase at $14,806.
Transactions and Records Branch processed all the actions
concerned in this way.
After the actions were processed and sent to payroll, we
received instructions on how this procedure should be handled.
This ruling is found in OPM regulation 530.307(a)(b) - Effect
of statutory pay increase (attached). This ruling says:
"When an employee was receiving a special rate immediately
before the effective date of a statutory pay increase, he shall
receive on the effective date the rate of basic pay for:
(2) 503.307(b) If there is no new special rate range, the
numerical rank in the new statutory pay schedule for his grade
or level that corresponds with the numerical rank of the special
rate he was receiving immediately before that effective date."

OR000300040012-4
Example: GSC-06-1 = $14128
GS-06-1 = $14328
Transactions and Records Branch was not aware of this regulation.
We learned from OPM that you can apply the Simultaneous Rule
when an employee is to receive 2 or more benefits on the same
effective date but a Legislative Pay Increase is not considered
a benefit.
After talking with PMCD and OPM referent,
Transactions and Records Branch and Contract Personnel Division
believes that these actions were prepared incorrectly...Correc-
tive actions have been processed to pay adjust the employees
to the correct step of their grade. The employees did not
lose money. They should have been converted at the same step
in the GS pay schedule that corresponded with the step in the
special rated schedule since the employee's current rate of
pay was not reduced.
