Under 5 C.F.R. § 532.407, pay raise at time of promotion for prevailing rate emrnployee is required to be at least 4 per- cent. In this decision we determine that 14s. Donna Fonville, an employee of the Defense Mapping Agency Aerospace Center (DMAAC), is entitled to increased compensation in the form of an additional step within her wage schedule. This deter- mlration follows from a finding that the agency's policy of rounding down fractions of less than one-half of I cent pro- duced a raise in pay for Ms. Fonville at the time of her promotion of less than 4 ,-ercent in contravention of con- trolling personnel regulations. STATEMENT OF THE CLAIM On January 25, 1981, Ms. Fonville was promoted from the position of Painter Helper, WG-4102-05, Step 2 ($8.12 per hour) to the position of Painter Worker, WG-4102-07, Step 1 ($8.44 per hour). In setting Ms. Fonville's new rate of pay incident to her promotion, the DMAAC Personnel Office reported that it followed the provisions of section 8-3d(l) of Federal Personnel Manual Supplement (FPM Supp.) 532-1 (Inst. 17, April 14, 1980), which states that, upon promotion, an employee is entitled to be paid at the lowest scheduled rate of the grade to which promoted which exceeds his or her existing scheduled rate of pay by at least 4 per- cent of the representative rate of Lhe grade from which promoted.
