D.C. 2054 DATE: Neptember 13, 1978 b5i DIGJEST: Naval Shipyard employee received two successive promotions which resulted in his pay being adjusted with each promotion. Employee claims 'his pay rate should have buen set at his highest preyious rate in accordance with Shipyard repromotion regulation. That regulation was not applicable since employee was not demotea and later promoted to former position as con- templated by 1repromotion regulation. Employee'i rate was~ properly adjusted under Fhipyard ipromotiin regulation when he wao promoted from General Schedule to Wage Schedule. This action concerns the claim filed by Mr. Paul J. Thibeault, an employee of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Fortsmouth, New Hampshire, for a pay adjustment in connection with his promotion fro Production Controller, a General Schedule position, to Ship Scheduler, a prevailing rate (Wr3e Schedule) position. At issue is whether or not the Shipyard properly applied Lhe provision of its regulation for setting pay rates upon promction. Mr. Thibeault was promoted from Ship Scheduler (Electrician) WD-08, step 5, $6.49 per hour, to Production Controller GS-09, step 6, $6.51 per hour, effective September 30, 1973. Sub- sequently, effective January 18, 1976, he was promoted from Production Controller GS-09, step 7, $7.78 per hour, to Ship Scheduler (Electricfan) WD-08, step 3, $8,25 per hour. As a result of a rec> ;sification action on January 18, 1976, the duties of Ship Scheduler were redefined and the need for Production Controllers was eliminated in the Ship Scheduling area. Mr. Thibeault states that his procression was via Merit Promotion. He believes that upon promotion to Ship Scheduler in January 1976, his pay rate should have been set at WD-08, step 5, instead of WD-08, step 3. He claims that the activity disregard- ed Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Instruction (PNSI) 12552.4A in determining his pay level. Mr. Thibeault's pay rate was set under the provision of the regulation pertaining to setting ratos upon promotions and Mr. Thibeault believes the rate chould have been set under the provision dealing with repromotions. -jI L a I U MATTER OF: Paul J. Thibeault - Promotion from General Schedule Position to Wage Schedule Position
