S. EMPLOYEE SHOULD k KNOW ABOUT FORTHCOMING PAY RISE See Page 2 A GUIDE FOR NYC EMPLOYEES: How to Choose Your Pension One of the advantages of New York City employment is membership in the New York City Employees Retirement System. However, many persons coming into the City service make the mistake of choosing the smallest possible pension payments; then realize later that they might have made a better choice of pension plan. " T h e flexibility of the municipal retirement system," says R a l p h L. Van Name, secretary of t h e pension bureau, "is perhaps its best feature." Following is a guide, prepared by Mr. Van Name, to help NYC employees m a k e their selection among the options offered by the retirement laws when they enter the service or later during their ©mpolyment. I t is possible— At e n t r a n c e : T o choase lesser minimum retirement age of 55 instead of 58. 59 or 60. T o choose 30 year h a l f - p a y basis instead of 33, 34 or 35 year half-pay basis. T h a t is, for each years of service, a pension of 1/120 of "final compiensation" and the annuity purchasable by a contribution calculated to m a t c h t h e pension at t h e minimum service retirement age. During first year of first membership: To purchase credit for cityservice rendered since eligibility to membership fli'st began. During service: To increase contributions by 50 per cent for purchase of additional annmiity.

A project to measure the relative values of education and experience in civil service examinations and employment has been launched jointly by the Maryland state department of employemnt a n d registration and the Goucher pollege (Baltimore) department of political science. Results of the study may be of considerable potential value because of the effects of the war on the educational progress of war veterans, and because of trends in veterans' preference legislation eliminating educational requirements as a prerequisite in civil service examinations, the Civil Service Assembly reports. Civil service officials hope the study will yield Information usef u l in shaping practical policies regarding establishment of educational and experience requirements in connection with civil service tests. Three major i>oints are emphasized in the study: 1. To determine whether there Is a trend away from the establishment of h a r d and fast educational requirements. 2. To compare the job success of employees having extensive educational qualifications. 3. To identify the occupational fields in which specific educational requirements are necessary, in contrast with those in which the substitution of experience is practicable. Results of the study, first of its kind to be made, may be of value to civil service jurisdictions throughout the country ii their efforts to establish education and experience requirements for employees a f t e r the war, when a great many applicants will be war veterans who did not complete their formal education before entering the service.

Introduced by Councilman Hart, the measure provides an amendment to the Administrative Code which allows the City Council to specify the days which will be recognized as religious holiflays, Then the Council would notify the head of each department of these days. Any employee applying for the day off for religious observances, must be given the leave. The proposed bill also says t h a t : "Any Commissioner or head of a City agency who wilfuly violates any of the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be removed from office. At present, there is no way in which per diem employees may be paid for religious time.

W e believe t h a t t h e provisions for a n i ^ t p a y d i f f e r e n t i a l a s set f o r t h i n section 104 of t h i s bill should be e n a c t e d i n t o law. 1. T h e objectives of providing a n i g h t d i f f e r e n t i a l are t o c o m p e n s a t e employees f o r working a t u n desirable h o u r s , a n d f o r t h e dislocation a n d disruption of t h e i r lives w h i c h results f r o m s u c h work. 2. T h e validity of these r e a s o n s h a s been recognized by t h e F e d e r a l g o v e r n m e n t by m a k i n g i t possible f o r t h e following groups t o receive a n i g h t p a y d i f f e r e n t i a l : (a) P e r h o u r a n d per a n n u m employees of t h e Government ' P r i n t i n g Office.

Provisions f o r n i g h t d i f f e r e n t i a l p a y f o r i n d u s t r i a l workers on r e g u l a r n i g h t s h i f t s are very common. 4. T h i s bill would apply to t h e F e d e r a l service generally t h e p r o visions now applicable t o t h e Postal Service, namely, t h a t p e r sons working between t h e h o u r s Qf 6 p.m. a n d 6 a.m. shall, f o r work p e r f o r m e d between s u c h horns, be p a i d a d i f f e r e n t i a l of 10 pier cent. Holiday Pay D. We believe t h a t , following t h e war, employees w h o a r e called upon to work o n a holiday should be c o m p e n s a t e d a t time a n d o n e half r a t e s a s provided for in section 105 of t h e proposed bill. 1.

O u r recommendation for p r e m i u m p a y f o r holiday work is based on c o n f o r m a n c e with i n dustrial p r a c t i c e a n d on t h e d e .sirability of p a y i n g a F e d e r a l e m ployee m o r e f o r a holiday on which h e is required to work t h a n h e would be p a i d for such a holiday w h e n h e is excused f r o m working because of t h e occurrence of t h e holiday. Types of Jobs E. W e believe t h a t t h e Civil Service Commission should h a v e t h e r i g h t to i-ecognize t h e existence of s e p a r a t e types of jobs within t h e various grades of t h e Classification Act. a n d t h e n where t h e n a t u r e of t h e work justifies such a c t i o n to authorize d e p a r t m e n t s a n d agencies to h i r e p e r sons at a r a t e of pay h i g h e r t h a n t h e m i n i m u m of t h e grade. Section 302 of t h e proposed bill g r a n t s such authority. 1. If t h i s section is approved, the Civil Service Commission m i g h t , for example, i-ecognize s t e n o g r a p h e r s as a s e p a r a t e class w i t h i n g r a d e CAF-3. W e m i g h t a t t h e s a m e t i m e decide t h a t t h e d u ties of s t e n o g r a p h e r s , a s c o m p a r e d with other types of positions w i t h i n g r a d e CAF-3, a r e sufficiently m o r e difficult to j u s t i f y a n e n t r a n c e r a t e of pay of $1,740 a y e a r instead of t h e m i n i m u m r a t e of $1,620. O r t a k i n g , f o r example, t h e liigher brackets, we m i g h t recogniae t h e existence of a s e p a r a t e olass within grade CAF-12, the ^ > 3 n t r a n c e r a t e for which is $4,800, a n d specify t h a t t h e duties a n d responsiblities of t h a t class a r e sufflolently difScult w h e n ooin> Extra Rewards G. We believe t h a t definite p r o vision should be m a d e by t h e Congress f o r r e w a r d i n g superior a c c o m p l i s h m e n t a s provided f o r in sections 304 a n d 305. 1. S t a t e d simply, if t h e s e sections were e n a c t e d i n t o law, dep a r t m e n t s a n d agencies would be able t o g r a n t one a d d i t i o n a l w i t h in-grade salary advancement w i t h i n e a c h waiting period, a s suming t h a t the accomplishment u p o n t h e p a r t of t h e employee measured u p to standards prom u l g a t e d by t h e Civil Service Commission. A p r o g r a m of t h i s k i n d properly a d m i n i s t e r e d will p a y f o r itself m a n y t i m e s over in t e r m s of i m proved efficiency in t h e F e d e r a l service. Special Provisions H. I n so f a r as t h e general p r o visions of Title IV a r e concerned, we desire t o call a t t e n t i o n to j u s t two sections, 403 providing f o r a n increase in basic r a t e s f o r cust o m s clerks a n d section 405 r e lating t o t h e suspension of t h e S a t u r d a y half holiday law. I. Section 403 is designed to provide a basic p a y increase of 15 per cent for customs clerks whose base p a y rates, $1,700 to $2,100 a year, are now established by t h e classes of customs employees, all B a c h a r a c h Act of M a y 29, 1928. T h i s law f o r m e r l y covered o t h e r classes of c u s t o m s employees, all of whom, except c u s t o m s clerics, h a v e now been b r o u g h t u n d e r t h e Clasification Act pay scales by legislation. W e c a n not r e c o m m e n d section 403 as desirable legislation. W e believe it p r e f e r a b l e to bring cust o m s clerks within t h e purview of t h e Classification Act. If t h i s is done, t h e y would t h e n i m m e d i ately become s u b j e c t t o t h e p r o visions of t h i s bill r e l a t i n g t o i n creases in basic r a t e s of c o m p e n sation a n d to overtime pay. 2. As a s u b s t i t u t e for section 405. we r e c o m m e n d t h e following: SEC. 405 ( a ) — I t shall be t h e d u t y of t h e h e a d s of t h e several executive d e p a r t m e n t s , i n d e p e n d e n t e s t a b l i s h m e n t s a n d agencies, including g o v e r n m e n t - o w n e d or government-controlled corporations. a n d t h e m u n i c i p a l governm e n t of t h e District of Columbia, to require of all f u l l - t i m e e m ployees in their respective o r g a n i zations in t h e d e p a r t m e n t a l a n d t h e field services, a basic a d m i n istrative workweek of 40 h o u r s w i t h i n s n y one period of seven consecutive c a l e n d a r d a y s : P r o vidted.
