Federal workers will still receive raises despite pay freeze | The Daily Caller - Breaking News, Opinion, Research, and Entertainment

Federal workers will still receive raises despite pay freeze | The Daily Caller - Breaking News, Opinion, Research, and Entertainment: "President Obama’s proposal of a pay freeze for federal employees is a small step towards curbing government spending. However, a closer look shows there is less to it than meets the eye. In fact, many federal employees will still see their salaries increased.

While Obama’s plan would stop the annual across-the-board cost of living adjustment (COLA) for all federal workers, it will not stop workers from getting raises altogether. The freeze will not affect pay raises for job classification upgrades. As an official at the Office of Management and Budget told Federal News Radio, “employees will still be eligible for step increases.”"
