Government Executive: The Obama administration on Monday unveiled the exact adjustments to base salaries employees in each locality pay area will receive in 2016, with the largest increases concentrated in major American cities.
The first adjustments to locality pay since 2010 will rope about 108,000 federal employees into a specific locality area -- rather than the “rest of United States” designation -- for the first time, though the employees in existing localities will see the biggest raises next year. The adjustments will increase the total federal payroll by 0.3 percent, according to a letter sent to Congress by President Obama on Monday.
