Reckard - Claim For Travel Expenses and Overtime Compensation DIGEST: 1. An employee was transferred to a new duty station for 14 months during the resolution of his grievance on a prior improper transfer. The employee alleges that the agency delayed pro- cessing his grievance in violation of its own procedures, and that, therefore, he is entitled to tempo- rary duty allowances for his assign- ment at the new duty station. Matters relating to grievances are within the jurisdiction of the agency and the Office of Personnel Management, and will not be considered by this Office. In any event, corrective action on the employee's grievance did not change his duty status from permanent to temporary, and he may not be paid temporary duty allowances. 2. An employee claims overtime compensa- tion for the relocation travel he performed on a Sunday in order to report to his new duty station on Monday morning. The time the employee spent in a travel status does not qualify as compensable overtime under 5 U.S.C. S 5542, since his travel did not result from an administratively uncontrollable event. Ms. Barbara P. Pomeroy, Comptroller of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF), Department of the Treasury, requests our decision on the claim of Mr. David D. Reckard, an employee of BATF. Mr. Reckard claims temporary duty allowances associated with his trans- fer to a new permanent duty station pending the resolution of his grievance on a prior improper transfer. Also, 0_2SO1 7
