MATTER OF: Charles W. McGinnis -]Claim for Retroactive
              Temporary  Promotion and Backpay

 DIGEST:   Employee,  classified as grade GS-13, alleges that
           he was detailed to GS-14 position for 20 months and
           was wrongully denied temporary promotion. He
           claims retroactive pay under Turner- Caldwell,
           56 Comp. Gen. 427 (1976). His claim is denied.
           Record fails to indicate establishment of higher
           graded position to which employee was assigned.
           The principles of Turner-Caldwell allowing retro-
           active temporary promotions for details to higher
           grade positions, do not apply where the position
           involved was not an established higher grade
           position.

 * Mr.  Charles W. McGinnis has requested reconsideration of
 our Claims Division's denial on June 14, 1978, of his claim of
 a retroactive temporary promotion. Mr. McGinnis is a former
 employee of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare AC2)
 (HEW), and his claim is based on an alleged detail to a GS-14
 position during the period January 2, 1975, to September 12,
 1976.

   The  claimant entered on duty with the Division of Management,
Social and Rehabilitation Service, HEW, on December 10, 1972,
at grade GS-13 in the GS-501-13 Financial Management Adviser
position. Effective January 2, 1975, Mr. McGinnis was assigned
to the position of State Grants Adviser for Pennsylvania. Effec-
tive September 12, 1976, Mr. McGinnis was reassigned from his
Financial Management position (GS-501-13) to the position of
Supervisory State Grants Manager (GS-501-13).

    On July 21, 1977, Mr. McGinnis filed a claim with HEW for
a retroactive temporary promotion to GS-14 and backpay for the
period of January 2, 1975, to September 12, 1976, when he
served as State Grants Adviser for Pennsylvania. Upon review
of the matter, HEW authorities concluded that the assignment
of Mr. McGinnis to the position of State Grants Adviser for
Pennsylvania did not alter his position of record nor did it result
in added duties or responsibilities that were not already a part
