How will an employee be promoted from one pay band to another?
Employees must typically serve 52 weeks in their current pay band before being eligible for promotion to the next higher pay band. The promotion can be obtained non-competitively if it is a career ladder promotion or can be obtained competitively by being selected from a vacancy announcement. Will employees who occupy a career ladder position, but have not reached their full performance level, be eligible to continue to receive their career ladder promotions after conversion to the demonstration project? Return to Top Current NNSA employees, who at the time of conversion into the demonstration project have a career ladder to a higher GS grade but have not reached the top level of that career ladder, will be eligible for special in-band pay increases to ensure that their base rate under the demo project is equivalent to the base rate they would have received had they remained in the General Schedule.
