Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Pay for Work on Sundays and Holidays

B-197533 Apr 03, 1981
Jump To:

Highlights

An advance decision was requested for a clarification of a previous decision insofar as it relates to the Sunday and holiday pay entitlement of part-time immigration and customs inspectors. In that decision, GAO held that regular part-time immigration inspectors were not entitled to the special rate of pay authorized for overtime work between the hours of 5 p.m. and 8 a.m. Authorized special pay for work between 5 p.m. and 8 a.m. applies only to overtime work performed by full-time employees with regular tours of duty. Part-time inspectors are entitled to compensation for overtime work, in excess of 8 hours, on a Sunday or holiday.
