How will an employee on pay retention be converted to NSPS?
• At the time of conversion, the employee is converted to a career group, pay schedule, and pay band based on his or her permanent position of record (not the former position used for pay retention determination). • If the base salary exceeds the rate range for the assigned pay band, the employee will be granted pay retention for two years starting on the day of conversion to NSPS. • At the end of the two years, the base salary is fixed at the maximum rate of the pay band to which the employee is assigned.
