060 CLASSIFICATIONS AND RECLASSIFICATIONS OF
POSTS (Last updated 5/1/2005)
061 Post
Classifications
The
classifications (i.e. allowance rates) for living quarters, post, transfer,
education allowance, danger pay, and post differential at any place in foreign
areas where employees may be assigned are provided in the electronic Section
920 found at http://aoprals.state.gov/Web920/location.asp?menu_id=95.
(eff. 5/1/05 TL:SR 650)
(1) If
the name of the post is listed individually in Section 920, the classifications
shown for the post shall be applicable.
(2) If
the post is not listed individually in Section 920, but the country or area of
assignment is listed, the appropriate classification for the country or area of
assignment shall apply.
(3) If
the post is not listed individually in Section 920, the classification shown
for "Other" for that country shall be applicable.
(4) If
neither the name of the post nor the name of the country or area is so listed,
the classifications shown for "Other Foreign Localities" shall apply.
062 Post
Reclassifications
If
warranted by analysis of reports, a post will be reclassified for any
allowances, post hardship differential and danger pay listed in Section
920. Such reclassifications will be
currently effective including those for individual posts which previously were
classified under the "Other" listing and appear for the first time
individually. Revision of a post
classification for an allowance, differential or danger pay necessitates
revision of the payments to affected employees.
Where a post has been reclassified for education allowance in a grade or
grades, the new rate shall apply only to grants which cover periods of school
attendance beginning on or after the effective date of the reclassification.
