Our review, which was made using statistical sampling techniques, included an examination into the following specific areas: 1. Granting of within-grade increases to General Schedule employees and step increases to Wage Board employees. 2. Coordination of Wage Board practices under the Coordinated Federal Wage System. 3. Retroactive salary payments made under the Federal Employees Salary Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-231). Our review also included an evaluation of the system of internal con- trols, including internal audit, used by the Civilian Personnel and Civilian Payroll Offices to assure that the pay actions discussed above were processed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and that verification procedures assure detection and correction of errors. Our review did not include an examination into the computation of biweekly salary payments, leave, travel, or other costs. We found that generally the administration of those areas of civilian pay which we examined was carried out in a satisfactory manner. Certain minor deficiencies which we noted during our review were discussed with members of your staff who indicated corrective action would be taken. In addition, we believe the system of internal controls in effect during the period of our review, except as noted below, assured that pay actions covered by our review were processed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 50 TH ANNIVERSARY 1921 - 1971
