duty May 10, Is the latest victim
The penalties, both involving
money, are these:
/. He is not entitled to salary
increases he would have received
automatically had he been or
the payroll continuously.
2. He must forfeit leave which
accrued during the suspension
period because it exceeds the
maximum he may carry forward
under the law--even though he
was not in a position to use it
This hits career employees par
ticularly hard.
$500 in Raises Lost"
Mr.. Hatkin, who has is years
service, figures he has lost
about $500 in pay increases and
$500 worth of leave time. He
says his attorney is studying
the matter for possible action.
A reinstated employee is en-
titled to back pay, of course
under Public Law 1888 Of 1850
But the Controller General has
interpreted that statute as bar
ring executive agencies from
paying wage increases which
have occurred during the period
of suspension.
Scores Of other restored en-
ployes have been penalized In
this way since 1850. Former
Senator Harry P. Cain gave a
breakdown in a recent speech
of 416 reinstated individuals
who got a total of nearly 81
million in back pay. But it is
estimated they lost" many
thousands of dollars more in
pay rises-in grade and Statu-
tory-because of long periods of
suspension.
Although the United States
Court of Claims has backed the
Controller General in similar
cases under Public Law 623 of
1913. which applies to civil
service suitability suspensions
and dismissals, no one has even
taken a pay increase" case
under PL 1913 to the court.
