What types of salary increases may temporary grant and time-limited project employees receive?
Agencies have the flexibility to give salary increases to a temporary grant and time-limited project employee for any appropriate reason as long as the increases do not place the employee’s salary above the maximum of the position’s comparable pay band and the grant or time-limited project can fund the increase. However, the Annual Appropriation Act does not typically provide funds for these employees to receive general or merit increases.
