OF THE UNITED STATES W S WASHINGTON, 0.C. 20548 L'N IT~0 B-195032 MATTER OF: DATE: July 25, 1979 Mrs. Virginia A. Rawlings - Highest previous rate on reemployment DIGEST: Salary of employee, who had been paid at grade GS-4 prior to resignation, was set at GS-3, step 1 on reemployment.( The evi- dence presented does not establish that the personnel officer erred in applying the lower rate at the time of reemployment in accordance with the broad discretion given him ix the applicable regulations.

Rawlings. Mrs. Rawlings ia-s4-aimin-an increase in salary retroactive to 4e-r reem- ploymentin 1965 with the Department of the Army following a break in service of 3-1/2 years. We agree with the conclusion reached by the Claims Division for the following reasons. Mrs. Rawlings resigned from her position as a GS-4, with the Department of the Army on August 18, 1961. On January 25, 1965, she received a temporary appointment as a GS-2, with the Internal Revenue Service. She resigned from that position on September 16, 1965, and was reem- ployed by the Department of the Army on September 17, 1965, as a GS-3, step 1.
