Ask the Lawyer received the following question (paraphrased for easier reading and clarity) from a reader on a legal matter that might be of interest to the entire audience.
Q:
I was hired under FCIP last June and I have been told I would increase two grades until I completed the program and one grade after completion of the program. However, with the transition of FCIP to competitive service, will I keep my GS grade progressions?
A:
My understanding is that current FCIP employees may continue their employment under the terms of their original appointment.
