          MATTER OF: John   W.  Mrtrau, et al. - Retroactive Change in
          DG    T       Appointment, With Fringe Benefits

          DIGeY: Ernployees 'ippointed   on an intermittent basis may
                     not be retrna6tively gtanted regular part-time ap-
                     pointments,, with accoinpanying fringe benefits, in
                     the absence-of ev.ldence establishing that they worked
                     preacheduled, continuous, regular tours of duty.

           This action results from the appeal by Mr; James M. Peirce,
       Presderittf the National Federation of Federal Employees (NFF),
       rf the'settlement dated January: 30, 1971, by our Claims Division
       ritch denied the claims of nineteen comitissary casniers employed
       at Fort George Meade, Maryland.,

           The employees' claims' for o'nverior\from itermittent to reg-
       ular'part**time status, wiih assocfated fi-izt,ge behe'lts were disallowed
       on the ground that they were appointed as ihtermitteat eimployees
       and as subb weie not entitled to certain of the benefits claimed. In
       the settlement of January 39, 1978, the employees were advised that
       any claim for credito t:e Civil Service Retirement and Disablity
       Fund..should be directed to *heUnited States Civil Service Commission
       as thiy have exclusive jurisdiction in such matters. They were also
       advised of iwhat action to take if they had not been paid for overtime
       or holiday pay.

           The nineteen claimants were all designated intermittent employees
       until'offered the'oportifity to change t6 either full or part-time
       status. They  contend, however, that on the basis of the work they
       acually pierfoztmed ttey shoutld be ritroactively graited regular
       part-time employee status and all accorrnanying'bcnefits, effertive
       fiom the first day of ei$lyrient. We'iite that five of the nineteen
       dlaimants were first.,imployed prior to 1970. Since the claims were
       nor; redeived in our Claims Division until April 16, 1976, we cannot,
       urider the terms 'of 31 U. S. C. 5 71a, consider any portion of their
       claims arising before April 16, 1970.

           Intermittent or when-actuiflly-erployed (WAE) duty is defined
       in Department of the Army CPR  990-2 (Cl), Book 610, paragraph
       S3 -2b(3), which provides in part as follows:

           'Itermitt'ent (WAE) services are those rendered by employees
           for whom no tour of duty can feasibly be established on a con-
           tinuing basis. It applies to chose employees who are expected
