For example, under the IRS broadbanding system conversion-out procedures, the GS-equivalent rate of pay is not adjusted to equal a standard step rate.

NT = Demonstration Administrative and Technical (for civilian Navy personnel only).
Job performance is decided by an employee’s supervisor. I hold a NT-5 position. The Pay Band verses GS Scale debate generally falls along partisan political lines. Under NSPS, supervisors were forced to painstakingly monitor employee performance to the point of hampering productivity more than it helped. The employee's demonstration project salary of $110,236 in 2006 falls between steps 7 and 8 on the GS-14 locality rate range for Washington, DC. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) both implemented successful Pay Banding Systems. The employee's converted GS rates are used in applying GS pay administration rules, as necessary, in lieu of using his or her demonstration project rate.Under the demonstration project, the employee was a PD-3/2 (this pay band is equivalent to GS-13 and 14) in the Washington, DC, area. When an employee moves, without a break in service, to a General Schedule (GS) position from a non-GS pay system under 5 U.S.C. It should be noted that the NSPS Pay Band system was established under President George W. Bush and repealed under President Barack Obama. NSPS purportedly weakened Equal Employment Opportunity and Veterans’ Preference protections. If you move to NT you'd come over at somewhere in the NT-2 payband (GS-5/8). The added flexibility under the NSPS system came at a significant bureaucratic price. The NT-05 pay band encompasses positions equivalent to the GS-13 and GS-14. Pay Bands are a type of pay scale designed to provide more flexibility regarding how much employees are paid. In the GS scale, pay is based education and experience. If you are using assistive technology to view web content, please ensure your settings allow for the page content to update after initial load (this is sometimes called "forms mode"). We are rated annually, one at mid-year and one at end of year. Assuming the employee is covered by the Washington, DC, locality pay schedule at GS-15, the employee's pay upon promotion is set at GS-15, step 5 ($121,856). An employee at the top of one band will usually make for than someone at the bottom of the next higher pay band.
Civilian Pay Tables Review current pay tables from the Office of Personnel Management. In addition to basing salary on education, experience and position, Pay Bands base salary on job performance. In addition to basing salary on education, experience and position, Pay Bands base salary on job performance.
Pay Band systems on a small scale have been successful. Not until you reach the higher GS grades are the grades given competitively. Under this demonstration project's conversion-out procedures, the employee's GS-equivalent grade is GS-14. Within these bands, pay is based on employee performance. Under this demonstration project's conversion-out procedures, the employee's GS-equivalent Pay Banding is often implemented by compressing the GS’s 15 grades into four or five Pay Bands. Unions generally oppose Pay Banding. Note: The conversion-out procedures under demonstration project pay systems and IRS broadbanding systems vary. Job performance is decided by an employee’s supervisor. NT's do not have steps like the GS system. Use the converted GS-14, step 8, rate to apply the GS promotion rule under 5 CFR 531.214. Each pay band has a minimum and maximum pay. Preliminary studies by the U.S. Department of Labor found – while controlling for education, experience and tenure – minorities tended to fair worse under the NSPS system.

Based on For Civilian Pay questions, please contact your Customer Service Representative (CSR). Therefore, GS-14, step 8, would be the employee's converted GS grade and step. Employees were then transitioned back to the GS scale or, in some cases, to other Pay Banding Systems in order to continue experimenting with the system.
Conservatives typically favor a Pay Band system while Democrats favor a more uniform pay system such as the GS Scale. This website uses features which update page content based on user actions. That is your annual salary plus locality pay.
Often new programs or organizations with high visibility and high public accountability will rely on pay bands in order to provide added motivation to employees. The NSPS changed policies such as tenure, collective bargaining and automatic grade increases under the GS system. The goal of Pay Banding is to give supervisors the ability to reward performance more. In the GS scale, pay is based education and experience. These pay bands typically range from GS-1 to GS-5, GS-6 to GS-11, GS-12 to GS-13 and GS-14 to GS-15. If necessary, contact the agency with the non-GS system to determine whether the system has such conversion-out rules and for assistance in following those rules to find the employee's GS-equivalent rate of pay. The goal of Pay Banding is to give supervisors the ability to reward performance more. Convert the employee's demonstration project adjusted rate to a rate on the highest applicable GS rate range that would apply to the employee's demonstration project position if it were a GS-14.
The pay conversion back to the GS system must be processed before any geographic movement or other pay-related action that may coincide with the employee's movement out of the demonstration project.
