THE STANDARD RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS CONCERNING WILL MY PAY DECREASE IS NO....YOUR BASE PAY WILL NOT CHANGE. I READ THERE WILL BE A LOCALITY ADJUSTMENT BUT WILL BE CALLED A LOCAL MARKET SUPPLIMENT MARKET AND UNACCEPTABLE PERFORMERS WILL NOT GET THE LOCAL MARKET SUPPLIMENT 1. WILL MY LOCALITY ADJUSTMENT PAY CHANGE AND HOW? UNDER THE NSPS SYSTEM ARE THE PULLING A FAST ONE BY REPLYING THE BASE PAY WILL NOT CHANGE KNOWING THAT THE LOCALITY ADJUSTMENT WILL BE LOWERED TO SAVE MONEY. ONE'S BASE PAY WILL NOT BE LOWERED BUT THE LOCALITY PAY WILL BE LOWERED AND IN EFFECT LOWERING ONE'S OVERALL INCOME. THE CURRENT SYSTEM ALREADY HAS A PREFORMANCE PAY COMPONENT IN THE PERFORMANCE BONUS AWARDED. 2. WILL THIS BONUS BE CHANGED? 3. PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW THE "POOL MONEY" WILL BE DEVIDED UP. WILL EACH GOUP IE.NURSES,SCERETARYMED TECH, AIRCRAFT MECH HAVE ITS OWN POOL OR WILL THERE BE ONE POOL FOR EVER CIVIAL SERVICE? 4. WILL ANNUAL LEAVE AND SICK LEAVE BE CHANGED?
