A large pay reform waits 30 days after notice to Congress
What the document says“None of the funds made available to the Department of Homeland Security by this or any other Act may be obligated for the implementation of any structural pay reform or the introduction of any new position classification that will affect more than 100 full-time positions or costs more than $5,000,000 in a single year”
Section 523(a). No money may be committed to a structural pay reform or a new position classification affecting more than 100 full-time positions or costing more than $5,000,000 in a year until 30 days after the Secretary notifies Congress, giving the number of positions affected, the cost this year and across the Future Years Homeland Security Program, a justification, and for a pay reform an analysis of the alternatives considered. Subsection (b) excepts changes proposed in the President's budget for the year this Act funds and not denied or restricted in it.
What the document actually says“None of the funds made available to the Department of Homeland Security by this or any other Act may be obligated for the implementation of any structural pay reform or the introduction of any new position classification that will affect more than 100 full-time positions or costs more than $5,000,000 in a single year”
A big change to pay or job classes must wait. The Secretary must first tell Congress and wait 30 days.
The rule covers changes touching over 100 jobs. It also covers ones costing over $5,000,000. The notice must show the cost and the reason.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
