D.C. 20540 FILE: B-131587 DATE: March 24, 1978 MATTER OF: Canal Zone Govertment - Effect of consolidation of school systems on payroll plan -. Reconsideration DIGEST: Teachers being transferred from Latin American Schools to American Schools in Canal Zone object to additional period without pay caused by con- solidation of two school systems. TEachers point out inequities and hardships which result from merger plan, and request that they be paid same as if merger had not been implemented del-ing 12-month period in question. Hardships enumerated by teachers do not overcome prohibition of 5 U.S.C. 5536. Prior decision of December 21, 1977, is sustained. This decision is in response to a request by Local S00 of the American Federation of State, County and Munkipal Employees, AFL-CIC, for reconsideration of our decision B-131587, December 21, 1977. Our decision concerned the union's proposal that teAchers who are forr-d to take a second vacation period due to consolidation of school systems in the Canal Zone be paid during this second vacation period. We ruied that the proposal could not be instituted since it would -result in teachers receiving 16 months of pay during a 12-month period which 4ould be in contravention of 5 U.S.C. 5536. The facts of this case were fully stated .n our decision of December 21, 1977, and need not be repeat:d here. Tn asking for reconsideration the union states., in pertinent part, as followus Implementation of the Latin American teachers recommendation meant that from March 1976 to March 1977 the Latin American teachers would have earned 15-months pay in 12 months, but it also meant that from March 1977 to March 1978 the teachers would have earned only 9-monthe pay in a 12-months period as they would not have been paid for the 3-months from June 5, 1977 through August 24, l'7 (vacation perxsd) as previously outlined. Furth, , teachers would have received 24 monzhs pay from iarch 1976 - March 1978 based on the teachers prsvo:- I in a 24 months period.
