Service Commission officials
who were invited to discuss cur
rent civil service problems.
Some Of the committee mem
bers thought Government class
ified employees would be better
of in the matter of salaries if
their pay were fixed by wage
boards, as in the case Of Fed
eral per diem (blue collar)
workers. Under this system. the
pay of per diem employees is set
according to the salary of COM
parable industry jobs in the
particular locale where they
work.
The consensus, though, was
that such a system for CLASH
fed and postal employees would
be impractical and would not
have q chance of getting the
approval of Congress. Congress
now sets the pay scale for clas-
sified and postal workers and
does not want to relinquish
this control.
However, there is consider
able sentiment in the commit
tee to give Federal agencies
more authority to adjust Gov
ernment pay within the mini
mum and maximum rates Of
Q grade set by Congress.
In fact, such additional au-
thority may have q chance Of
being approved by Congress,
either as part Of the present
pay raise legislation pending
before the committee, or as
separate legislation.
Under such authority, Fed
eral agencies c3uld adjust pay
upward whenever the recruit
ment or retention of employees
becomes difficult because of
higher industry rates in va
rious types of jobs.
The Civil Service Commits
sion does have authority now
to approve job entrance rates
above the minimum step of a
grade whenever it finds that
it Is difficult to recruit en-
ployes for certain types Of jobs.
However, the staff studies
now being made fc< the House
committee by its professional
