January 2024 Pay Adjustments

CPM 2023-20 December 21, 2023 Memorandum for Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies From: Kiran A. Ahuja Director Subject: January 2024 Pay Adjustments

The President has signed an Executive order to implement the January 2024 pay adjustments. (See Attachment 1.) Pursuant to the President’s alternative plan issued under 5 U.S.C. 5303(b) and 5304a on August 31, 2023, the Executive order authorizes a 4.7 percent across-the-board increase for statutory pay systems and locality pay increases costing approximately 0.5 percent of basic payroll, reflecting an overall average pay increase of 5.2 percent. This memorandum reviews relevant portions of the Executive order. The pay adjustment guidance in this memorandum does not apply to senior political officials who have been covered by a pay freeze. We will issue separate guidance regarding the continuation of this pay freeze. New 2024 Salary Tables and Effective Date We have posted the 2024 salary tables on OPM’s website. The 2024 pay schedules are effective the first day of the first applicable pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2024 (January 14, 2024, based on the standard biweekly payroll cycle). The General Schedule and Other Statutory Pay Systems The Executive order provides an across-the-board increase of 4.7 percent in the rates of basic pay for the statutory pay systems—the General Schedule (GS), the Foreign Service schedule, and certain schedules for the Veterans Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Special base rates for law enforcement officers at GS grades 3 through 10 are also increased by 4.7 percent. (These law enforcement officers are assigned the “GL” pay plan code.) Executive Schedule Under 5 U.S.C. 5318, the official Executive Schedule (EX) rates of pay are increased by 4.6 percent (rounded to the nearest $100). The official EX salary table is available on OPM’s website. The official EX rates of pay are used in establishing pay limitations for employees and pay systems unaffected by any pay freeze for certain senior political officials.

2 Senior Executive Service Under 5 U.S.C. 5382, the minimum rate of basic pay for the Senior Executive Service (SES) rate range is adjusted to be consistent with the increase in the minimum rate of basic pay for senior-level positions under 5 U.S.C. 5376 ($147,649 in 2024). The applicable maximum rate of basic pay for the SES is $221,900 (EX-II) for SES members covered by an SES performance appraisal system certified pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 5307(d) and $204,000 (EX-III) for SES members covered by an SES performance appraisal system that has not been certified. An SES member with a pay rate below the minimum rate of the new SES rate range must receive a pay increase effective January 14, 2024, that brings the SES member’s rate to at least the new minimum rate because an SES member may not receive less than the minimum rate of the SES rate range. Other SES pay adjustments must generally be made based on individual performance, contribution to the agency’s performance, or both, as determined under a rigorous performance management system, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 5382. An agency’s determination to adjust the rate of basic pay for an SES member that is approved by the end of the first pay period in January 2024 (January 27, 2024) may be made effective as of the first day of that first pay period (January 14, 2024). Determinations to adjust SES pay that are approved after January 27, 2024, will become effective at the beginning of the next pay period following the approval. OPM’s regulations for setting and adjusting SES pay are available at 5 CFR part 534, subpart D. Senior-Level and Scientific and Professional Positions The minimum rate of basic pay for the senior-level (SL) and scientific and professional (ST) rate range is increased by 4.7 percent, which is the amount of the base GS increase, and is $147,649 in 2024. An SL or ST employee with a pay rate below the minimum rate of the new SL/ST rate range must receive a pay increase effective January 14, 2024, that brings the employee’s rate to at least the new minimum rate because an SL or ST employee may not receive less than the minimum rate of the SL/ST rate range. The applicable maximum rate of basic pay is $221,900 (EX-II) for SL or ST employees covered by a certified SL/ST performance appraisal system and $204,000 (EX-III) for SL or ST employees covered by an SL/ST performance appraisal system that has not been certified. As provided in 5 U.S.C. 5376(b)(2) and 5 CFR 534.507(a)(1), effective at the beginning of the first applicable pay period commencing on or after the first day of the month in which an adjustment takes effect under 5 U.S.C. 5303 in the rates of basic pay under the General Schedule, the head of an agency must adjust an SL/ST employee’s rate of basic pay by an amount the agency head considers appropriate (including a zero adjustment), subject to the regulations in 5 CFR 534.507, and the agency’s written procedures. Therefore, each agency must make an appropriate adjustment in each

3 SL/ST employee’s rate of basic pay because the General Schedule is being adjusted the first day of the first pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The adjustment of an SL/ST employee’s pay rate under 5 CFR 534.507(a)(1) must be made effective on the first day of the first pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2024 (January 14, 2024, based on the standard biweekly payroll cycle). An agency’s determination to adjust the rate of basic pay for an SL or ST employee that is approved by the end of the first pay period in January 2024 (January 27, 2024) may be made effective as of the first day of that first pay period (January 14, 2024). Determinations to adjust SL/ST pay that are approved after January 27, 2024, will become effective at the beginning of the next pay period following the approval. OPM’s regulations for setting and adjusting SL/ST pay are available at 5 CFR part 534, subpart E. Post-Employment Restrictions Agencies are required to notify SES members, SL and ST employees, and other individuals who are paid at a rate of basic pay equal to or greater than 86.5 percent of the rate for EX-II ($221,900 x 86.5 percent = $191,944 in 2024) that they are subject to certain post-employment restrictions in 18 U.S.C. 207(c)(2)(A)(ii). OPM’s regulations requiring notification of post-employment restrictions are available at 5 CFR part 730. Agencies may continue to use the sample notice OPM provided in its memorandum of January 6, 2004 (CPM 2004-01), to notify SES members, SL or ST employees, or other individuals that they are subject to the post-employment restrictions in 18 U.S.C. 207(c). (Agencies will need to update the pay system, salary threshold, and effective date, as appropriate.) View the sample notice. Aggregate Limitation on Pay The aggregate limitation on pay for calendar year 2024 is $246,400 (equivalent to the rate for EX-I). SES members and employees in SL/ST positions who are covered by a certified performance appraisal system are subject to a higher aggregate limitation on pay of the Vice President’s salary ($284,600 in 2024). (See 5 U.S.C. 5307 and 5 CFR part 530, subpart B.) Administrative Law Judges The Executive order reflects a decision by the President to increase the rates of basic pay for administrative law judges (ALJs) by 4.7 percent, rounded to the nearest $100 (except for those at AL-1 who will receive a 4.6 percent increase). The rate of basic pay for AL-1 is $191,900 (equivalent to the rate for EX-IV). The rate of basic pay for AL-2 is $187,300. The rates of basic pay for AL-3/A through 3/F range from $128,200 to $177,600. The new ALJ salary table is available on OPM’s website. Administrative Appeals Judges Under 5 U.S.C. 5372b, the rates of basic pay for administrative appeals judge (AAJ) positions must be set at a rate not less than the minimum rate of basic pay for level AL-

4 3 and not more than the maximum rate of basic pay for level AL-3 of the ALJ pay system established under 5 U.S.C. 5372. At 5 CFR 534.603, OPM’s regulations link the structure of the AAJ pay system directly to the structure for level AL-3 of the ALJ pay system. The AAJ pay system includes six rates of basic pay—AA-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. These rates correspond to the rates of basic pay for AL-3/A, B, C, D, E, and F of the ALJ pay system. The new AAJ salary table is available on OPM’s website. Locality Pay Areas On November 16, 2023, OPM published a final rule in the Federal Register on behalf of the President’s Pay Agent making certain changes to definitions of existing locality pay areas and establishing four new locality pay areas. The four new locality pay areas established are Fresno-Madera-Hanford, CA; Reno-Fernley, NV; Rochester-BataviaSeneca Falls, NY; and Spokane-Spokane Valley-Coeur d’Alene, WA-ID. The changes are applicable the first day of the first applicable pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2024 (January 14, 2024, based on the standard biweekly pay period cycle). The final rule is available on the Federal Register’s website. Locality pay area definitions are available on OPM’s website. Locality Payments The President’s Executive order reflects the amounts of the new locality payments for GS employees. Attachment 2 provides a table showing the 2024 locality pay percentage and total percentage increase in each locality pay area (reflecting the combined effect of the 4.7 percent across-the-board increase and the applicable increase in the locality pay percentage). GS locality rates are limited by law to the rate for EX-IV (which is increased by 4.6 percent). (See 5 U.S.C. 5304(g)(1) and the “Executive Schedule” section, above.) The 2024 locality pay tables for the General Schedule are available on OPM’s website. Locality Pay Extensions On November 29, 2023, OPM issued a memorandum on behalf of the President’s Pay Agent (the Secretary of Labor and the Directors of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget and OPM) that continues GS locality payments for ALJs and certain other nonGS employee categories in 2024. The memo is available on OPM’s website. Locality Pay for Domestic Employees Teleworking Overseas Section 9717 of the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 (Public Law 117-263, December 23, 2022) authorizes certain employees working overseas under a Domestic Employee Teleworking Overseas (DETO) agreement to receive a special locality payment calculated as the lesser of (1) the amount of locality pay the employee would have been paid under 5 U.S.C. 5304 or 5304a if the employee’s official duty station had not been changed to an overseas location under the applicable DETO agreement or (2) the amount of overseas locality pay the employee would be

5 paid if the employee were an eligible member of the Foreign Service (which, under current law, is two-thirds of the locality pay authorized for a duty station within the District of Columbia). We have updated the fact sheet on Domestic Employees Teleworking Overseas (DETO) – Locality Pay to include 2024 rates and to update the list of special pay table identifier codes. Cost-of-Living Allowance Rates for Nonforeign Areas As provided under the Nonforeign Area Retirement Equity Assurance Act of 2009 (subtitle B of title XIX of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84, October 28, 2009)), employees in nonforeign areas entitled to costof-living allowances (COLAs) have corresponding reductions in their COLAs when locality rates increase. The locality and COLA rates in each COLA area are available at https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/pay-systems/nonforeign-areas/. Special Rates We are issuing a separate memorandum announcing the results of OPM’s annual review of special rates and the 2024 special rate adjustments. Prevailing Rate Pay Adjustments We are issuing a separate memorandum on pay adjustments for certain prevailing rate (wage) employees. 2024 Premium Pay Caps Under 5 U.S.C. 5547(a) and 5 CFR 550.105, GS and other covered employees may receive certain types of premium pay in a biweekly pay period only to the extent that the sum of basic pay and such premium pay for the pay period does not exceed the greater of the biweekly rate payable for (1) GS-15, step 10 (including any applicable locality payment or special rate supplement), or (2) the rate payable for EX-V ($180,000 in 2024). In certain emergency or mission-critical situations, an agency may apply an annual premium pay cap instead of a biweekly premium pay cap, subject to the conditions prescribed in law and regulation. (See 5 U.S.C. 5547(b) and 5 CFR 550.106– 550.107.) We have posted the 2024 biweekly premium pay caps fact sheet on OPM’s website. Adjusting Retained Rates Certain employees are entitled to retained rates above the applicable rate range under 5 U.S.C. 5363 and 5 CFR part 536. As provided in 5 U.S.C. 5363(b)(2)(B) and 5 CFR 536.305, when the maximum rate of the highest applicable rate range for an employee’s position of record is increased while the employee is receiving a retained rate, the employee is entitled to 50 percent of the amount of the increase in that maximum rate. An example of adjusting a retained rate can be found in the fact sheet on OPM’s website.
