Higher Level Pay. An employee who is detailed to higher level work shall be paid at the higher level for time actually spent on such a job. An employee’s higher level rate shall be determined as if the employee were promoted to the position at the minimum rate for such promotion. An employee temporarily assigned or detailed to a lower level position shall be paid at the employee’s authorized regular rate of pay.
Higher Level Pay. In the event a PSE is temporarily assigned to a higher- level position, such employee will be paid at the higher- level only for the time actually spent on such job. This language should not be construed to encourage the Postal Service to temporarily assign such employees to higher- level positions. When the opportunity exists for higher- level assignment, the principle of preference for career employees over PSEs should be utilized. PSEs will not be assigned to higher-level assignments within function four (e.g., LSSA, Bulk Mail Tech, Special Postal Clerk, Lead Clerk), except when no career employee is available.
