MATTER  OF:


DIGEST:


DATE: November 21, 1977


Robert P. Duff; - Backpay,
highest previous rate


Navy employee returned to forme-
position and grade, with time
credit for within grade increases
afte  L year temporary promotion,
may not have salary adj:usted based
on highest previous rate earned
during temporary promotion. There
is no agency regulation requiring
use of highest previous rate earned
during temporary promotion of more
than 90 days, and employee's
Notification of Persv.u*el Action
promoting him states he is to be
returned to former grade and
position with time credit for
within grade increases.


     This is in response to a letter dated June 15, 1977,
from Admiral D. M. Altwegg, Commaider, Pacific Missile
Test Center.  Admiral AItwegg has requested an advance
decision concernins the claim of Mr. Robert Duffy, an
employee of the Pacific Missile Test Center, who was
temporarily promoted on December 22, 1974, fron the
position of Supervisory Management Analyst, GS-13, step
5, to the position of Management Analysis Officer, CS-14,
step 2.  The temporary promotion expired on December 22,
1975.  In accordance with what Almiral Altwegg statEs
was the normal procedure at tha Test Center, Mr. Duffy
was ret-rned to his formEr position and grade with credit
for within grade increases.  At that time Ie requested
that his salary be established at a higher step of that
former grade based on the rate he received while tem-
porazily promoted, his highest previous rate. Altho3h
his supervisors were supportive of that request, per-
ponriel officials determined that it was not permissible
to grant it.  The Civilian Personnel Officer has now
dterml  .d that it would have been proper to base
Mr  -urfy's salary on that rate. Mr. Duffy,therefore,
seeks to hve  his salary established on thae basis of
the highest previous rate earned during his promotion
and to be compensated or. that basis retroactive to
December 22, 1975
