True to the spirit of wanting to improve my facility and being a Capitalist, I have reviewed:
Paragraph (d)
(1)The Administrator or the Secretary may pay premium pay to any air traffic controller of the Federal Aviation Administration or the Department of Defense who is assigned by the Administrator or the Secretary to provide on-the-job training to another air traffic controller while such other air traffic controller is directly involved in the separation and control of live air traffic.
(2)Premium pay paid under paragraph (1) of this subsection shall be paid at the rate of 10 per centum of the applicable hourly rate of basic pay times the number of hours and portion of an hour during which the air traffic controller of the Federal Aviation Administration or the Department of Defense provides on-the-job training.
My facility is currently not authorised OJTI pay (ironic since we train constantly in a high local), MCAS Cherry Point (to my knowledge) has OJTI pay, while they are also NATCA members I would like to know how they got it to be authorised. If anyone: knows anything, has a contact at MCAS Cherry Point, speak up as I am working to try to get our facility OJTI pay and am curious what justification they used or why the SECDEV approved it.
There are people here for years who have trained new Navy controllers and I feel that it warrants compensation, even if back pay is not given at least a token going forward would be appreciated by them.
Cheers all.
