        Decision



        Matterof: Chris Roggerson - Payment by Agency of Employee's
                Share of Retirement Contribution
        File:   B-226425

        Date:   January 4, 1988


        DIGEST

        An employee's change in appointment from a reemployed
        annuitant to a permanent Senior Executive Service position
        was incorrectly implemented by his employing agency, and no
        deduction was made from his salary for his contribution into
        the retirement fund for nearly 4 years. The agency is
        advised that there is no authority for the agency to pay the
        employee's share of his retirement contribution so that he
        may receive additional service credit. Congress has
        provided the employee with a solution in 5 U.S.C.
        § 8344(a)(B) (1982), which provides that he can attain
        additional service credit by voluntarily making a deposit in
        the retirement fund. See Sakran v. United States, 176 Ct.
        Cl. 831 (1966).


        DECISION

        The Director, Financial and Resource Management Services,
        U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC),
        requests an advance decision concerning the payment by the
        agency of an employee's share of his retirement contribu-
        tions where the agency failed to properly convert his
        appointment from reemployed annuitant to a permanent
        appointment. The EEOC is advised that there is no authority
        for such a payment.

        BACKGROUND

        Mr. Chris Roggerson had previously retired on discontinued
        service when he was employed by EEOC in various positions on
        a temporary basis as a reemployed annuitant from November 1,
        1980 to June 25, 1983. Mr. Roggerson's salary was properly
        reduced by his annuity, and since he was a reemployed
        annuitant, deductions from his salary for the Civil Service
        Retirement Fund were not withheld. 5 U.S.C.
        S 8334 (1982).
