Title: Changes in Pay Administration Rules for General Schedule Employees
Abstract: The Office of Personnel Management is issuing final regulations to implement a provision of the Federal Workforce Flexibility Act of 2004 that amends the rules governing pay setting for employees covered by the General Schedule. In particular, we are revising provisions related to special rates, locality rates, and retained rates. The statutory and regulatory changes are designed to correct a variety of pay administration anomalies that resulted in unfair pay reductions or unwarranted pay increases, to allow locality rates and special rates to be treated in similar ways, and to improve the operation of the special rates program.
