FEDERAL FIREFIGHTER PAY PROGRAM
Developed by Anthony J. Fanchi
Note for 2008: It has been brought to my attention, that some people are confused about GS Base Pay and how it applies to
federal firefighters. There was also some confusion about the amount I listed as Retirement . To help clear things up, I've added
comments to each category of pay on the main charts. They are identified by the small red triangle in each cell. Simply move
the cursor over each cell to read the comment. In addition, I have renamed the Retirement category to FF Base Pay. The
comments will help explain what each category represents.
I have also restored the capability to manual change the locality rate starting next year. Therefore, you do not have to wait on
next year's program to estimate you new salary. The rates for 2008 are already provided for you.
FILE SETTINGS: This program is initially set-up for the year 2008 and the locality / COLA area is Rest of U.S.
It is designed to easily convert to any other locality/COLA, and can be updated annually with estimated raises. The file also works
with all firefighter schedules. The current schedule is 72 hours a week for those firefighters working 24 hour shifts and
60 hours a week for firefighters with an embedded 40 hour workweek. The number of pay periods is 26
The following paragraphs will provide the information necessary to change or update the settings.
Note: If the settings are correct, you may proceed directly to the pay charts--click the appropriate tab below.
WORK SCHEDULE: There are two main firefighter pay charts--one for 24 hour shift firefighters, and one for the firefighters who
work a regular 40 hour workweek but also stay one night a week (Fire Chief, Fire Inspectors, etc). There are three hourly
schedules--72 hours a week, 60 hours, and 56 hours. Firefighters working less than 53 hours a week are not covered by these
charts. To change an hourly schedule, click on the appropriate space below and select the new hours.
Shift Schedule: 72
One night a week: 60
CHANGING LOCALITIES or COLA's:
COLA Rate: Refers to the Non-Foreign Cost of Living Allowance federal workers receive when employed outside the continental
U.S. Since I've never worked overseas, I have no easy way to verify if the figures are correct, unless someone tells me otherwise.
If anyone notices an error in COLA calculations, please e-mail me using the link above.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You either receive locality pay or a COLA. You do not receive both.
Locality/COLA Rate: To change the rate, click on the tab below to select from the list of all the locality/COLA areas. If you are
unsure of your locality/COLA area, contact your payroll adviser for assistance. Once this information has been changed, the pay
charts will automatically reflect the correct locality rate.
Future increases: If you want to manually change the locality rate in the coming years, enter the new rate in the red block below;
however, you still need to select the correct area. Please note not to use this block until next year's raise. The current rates are
already loaded into the system.
Locality/COLA Area: Rest of U.S. Set for Rest of US initially. Change as needed.
Locality/COLA Rate: 13.18% Manual locality raises only! Do not use in 2008!
PAY PERIODS: Most years contain 26 pay periods, which this file was initially set-up for. However, some years do contain 27
pay periods. This will cause the annual totals to be a paycheck short. To correct this, simply change the number of pay periods
in the space below to 27. Remember, you will need to change it back the following year.
# of pay periods: 26
ANNUAL GENERAL SCHEDULE INCREASES: This file is initially set-up for the year 2008. In order for it to be updated correctly,
you must not skip any annual raises. (Example: You update each year except 2010. When you enter the raise for 2011, the
amount will be added to the last pay established--in this case 2009, not 2010.) If you did skip a year or more, you must go back
and enter each raise missed for the current pay to be correct. (Hint: If the year shown on the charts is wrong, you probably
skipped a raise.)
Important Note: When you enter a raise into the program, you will produce estimated salaries only. When OPM posts
next year's pay charts on their web-site, the salaries do not always exactly match the numbers in this program. The
current year should be correct since the base numbers are directly from OPM's site; however, minor errors may develop
in later years. The resulting pay charts may not be accurate, but will be close. I apologize for any inconvenience. Every
year I create a new program with updated salaries, which is posted at http://www.dodfire.com and http://www.iaff16.org
Note: Raise's should reflect the General Increase only and not the locality increase. (Examples: 1999's General Increase
was 3.1%, while the average total raise, including locality, was 3.6%. In that case, the correct amount to enter was 3.1%. 2000's
General Increase was 3.8%, and the average total raise was 4.8%. The correct amount to enter: 3.8%.) The locality increase will
be included in the new locality percentage rate.
Note: If there is no General Increase in a given year, enter N/A in the appropriate block. This will tell the file to change
over to the new year, even though there is no raise. Again, locality increases do not apply here--only the general one (Example:
1994 was the first year we received a locality adjustment, but there was no general increase to go with it).
To add a raise, click on the block for the appropriate year and change the 0.00 to the raise amount. If you decide to skip a year,
enter N/A in the block. Please type in the number only. DO NOT enter the % symbol.
YEAR RAISE YEAR RAISE Examples YEAR RAISE
2009 0.00 2010 0.00 1994 N/A
2011 0.00 2012 0.00 1999 3.10
2013 0.00 2014 0.00 2000 3.80
2015 0.00 2016 0.00
SPECIAL PAY RATES: Some firefighters earn special rate base pay in lieu of the locality system. To accommodate this, a
separate spreadsheet is included. This sheet allows users to manually enter the appropriate special rates. If any special rates
are entered, they will override the GS Base Pay calculated by this program. To enter special rates, first complete any applicable
changes above, then proceed to the next spreadsheet, labeled "Special Rates" for more info.
SAVING YOUR CHANGES: If you are making temporary changes only, do not click save when you are done. When you exit,
click "NO" when it asks you if you want to save the changes. This way the file will revert back to the original settings. If your
changes are permanent, I recommend using the "SAVE AS" feature and then giving the new file a different name, such as the
locality area. Again, this will preserve the original file in case there is a problem with the new one. It is always nice to have the
original to fall back on.
FILE SPREADSHEETS: Once you have made any necessary adjustments, you can proceed to the pay charts. There are five
spreadsheets altogether, the first being this "Start Page." The others are labeled "Special Rates", "GS Pay Scale", "Shift
Firefighters", "Fire Chiefs, Fire Inspectors." To view a chart, click on the appropriate tab located along the bottom of the screen.
Once you have the chart you want and have verified the settings are correct, you can print several hardcopies to hand out. If
you need to make further changes, just return to the "Start Page" to enter the new settings.
SPECIAL RATE PAY CHART
WARNING: *DO NOT USE THIS CHART UNLESS YOU ARE PAID A SPECIAL SALARY RATE.*
Entries on this chart will change the final figures on the Firefighter pay charts.
This chart is used to enter any special salary rates your organization may receive. The way it works is to override base pay
calculations derived from the Start Page settings. It replaces the GS Base Pay that was calculated by this program with the
figures you enter below. No Locality will be included--the Base Pay you enter is the amount used for the Firefighter pay charts.
Note: Enter the number only. The $ sign is automatic. Also leave blank any grade and/or step that does not apply.
The calculated base pay will be used when a space is blank.

Special Note: This chart is for reference only! It should match the pay charts on OPM's website. It does not reflect the pay of a federal firefighter.
