Standardizing Local Pay Adjustments for Federal Employees.

This law aims to standardize how local pay supplements are calculated for most federal employees. It limits the government's ability to divide large pay areas into smaller zones, ensuring that employees within the same broad region receive fairer and more equal compensation. Importantly, the law protects current employees from having their basic pay rate reduced due to these changes.
Key points
Limiting Pay Area Divisions: Most geographic pay localities will now be restricted to having only one local wage area for federal workers.
Goal: To increase pay equity and fairness for federal employees working within the same general geographic region.
Pay Protection: No current employee's basic rate of pay will be reduced as a result of these changes.
