U u UNITED STATES GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE WASHINGTON REGIONAL OFFICE FIFTH FLOOR 803 WEST BROAD STREET FALLS CHURCH, VIRGINIA 22046 APR 2 2 1971 Commanding Officer Fort George G. Meade, Maryland 20755 Attention: AHBMCR Dear Sir: Umo9295i We have made a review of the practices and procedures applicable to the administration of certaift payroll matters for selected civilian employees of Fort George G. Meade for the period September 21, 1969, through September 19, 1970. Our review, which was made using statis- tical sampling techniques, included an examination into the following specific areas: 1. Granting of within-grade increases to General Schedule employees and step increases to Wage Board employees. 2. Coordination of Wage Board practices under the Coordinated Federal Wage System. 3. Retroactive salary payments made under the Federal- Employees Salary Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-231). Our review also included an evaluation of the system of internal controls, including internal audit, used by Fort George G. Meade to assure that the pay actions discussed above were processed in accord- ance with applicable laws and regulations and that verification pro- cedures assure detection and correction of errors. Our review did not include an examination into the computation of biweekly salary payments, leave, travel, or other costs. We found that generally the administration of those areas of civilian pay which we examined was carried out in a satisfactory manner. In addi- tion, we believe the system of internal controls in effect during the period of our review, except as noted below, assured that pay actions covered by our review were processed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. We noted that no internal audits have been pay for several years. Internal audit provides the work done and is an added safeguard against made in the area of civilian a check on the accuracy of misappropriation of funds. 50TH ANNIVERSARY 1921-1971
