The others will adopt the pay banding system by Jan. 1, said Tom Higel chief of morale welfare and recreations personnel Branch at the Headquarters of the . Air forces Europe. Pay banding is the final step in fully incorporating the experimental personnel office or expo system for Naf workers in Safe. Most Safe bases adopted a modified version of expo in fiscal 1990 so that they could phase in the entire system. Expo allows managers to set salary rates within Given pay bands and base pay on performance rather than on longevity step increases. It also cuts red tape in recruiting and hiring new employees. The . Army Europe has already announced that its employees will begin switching to the new system in january. Beginning in 1988, Sembach a was one of several military installations in Europe where expo was tested. Sembach a and Wei Brincken a began pay banding last december after getting special permission. They Are the Only Safe bases where the entire concept was put into effect before fiscal �?T91. Those to come on line by the end of november Are rats Ben Waters Laken Heath Mildenhall and upper Heyford England Lindsey air station Ramstein a Span Dahlem a Tempelhof Central Airport Berli Nall in Germany san Vito Dei Normanna air station Italy Tor Rejon a Spain and in Ciurlik a Turkey. Safe has about 7,500 Naf employees. About 4,500 will be affected by pay banding while others primarily those in Blue Collar positions will not be. Roughly 5 percent of a Safe a Naf work Force is in professional or managerial positions. Safe officials expect to see changes in Naf operations financial performance stemming from expo in the second Quarter of fiscal 1991 once employees have had time to receive Merit raises and Normal turnover has resulted in new hires. One result of pay banding is that managers charged with running a profitable operation learn quickly the benefits of budgeting. A there has been a tendency at first to possibly try to overcompensate a Higel said. A with that first Rush of Freedom managers tend to want to overpay. Then reality hits expo supporters say the system streamlines personnel actions rewards top workers and encourages employee development critics argue that the system allows managers to take advantage of employees by keeping salaries Low and to abuse fair hiring and firing practices.
