OF THE UNiTED STATES WASHINGTON, 0.C. 2054B .17 't e A 1 C I0f I' Z U4 FILE: B-1405 MATTER OF: Orin T. Hanson - Detail to Higher Grade Position Employee is entitled to retroactive temporary promotion after 120th day of detail to higher-level position for continuous period of detail although higher level position was abolished during part of detail period. Employee performed higher-level duties during entire period of detail, higher-level position was erroneously abolished incident to reorganization, and position was reestablished, although under different number, when error was discovered. Elmer Dovel, Director, Personnel Division, Agriculture Stabilization and Conservation Service, requested a decision whether Mr. Orin T. Hanson may be granted a retroactive tem- porary promotion for the entire period of a detail to a higher- level position although the higher-grade position was aribitrarily abolished during part of the period of the detail. On November 26, 1976, Mr. Hanson was detailed to perform the duties of Agriculture Program Specialist, GS-1145-14, Position Description No. 10213. These duties were to serve as Assistant to the Director, Conservation and Land Use Programs Division, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. His regular position was Agriculture Program Specialist, at grade level GS-13. Initially Mr. Hanson's detail was required because the incumbent of the higher-level position was detailed to a different position. On June 7, 1977, the incumbent was promoted, leaving the position vacant. However, Mr. Hanson continued to perform the higher-level duties while the position was vacant. Official notice, AO Notice 551 dated September 12, 1977, publicly announced the detail pursuant to a reorganization changing the name of-the Conservation and Land Use Programs Division to Conservation and Environmental Protection Division. Since there was a major reorganization, all vacant positions including Position Description No. 10213, were arbitrarily abol- ished, effective January 27, 1978, to clean up the computer based organizational listing. However, the position description should not have been abolished since the position was required and Mr. Hanson continued to perform the duties of the position DIGEST: 110M L K' LiA E: April 4, 1980
