(U) There was a question at MG Quirk's recent town meeting regarding retention allowances.
(U) Retention allowances have no impact on promotions, QSIs, or any awards. Funding
for retention allowances is provided by the Associate Directorate for Human Resources (ADHRS).
Requests are forwarded through the organization's management to the SID Chief of Staff for
approval. Once approved, they are sent to ADHRS for approval/funding. The policy for
requesting retention allowances can be found at:
HRS admin newsletter
(U) Each year, managers are required to review the retention allowances for each of their
employees and provide an assessment for the continuation, adjustment or termination of that
allowance. Supervisors must document their recommendation and return their decision back to
ADHRS for final Agency approval. This review is normally initiated in October of each year.
(U) At this time, all requests for new retention allowances and those allowances reviewed during
the annual process have been forwarded to ADHRS for ?nal approval. Employees should receive
pay adjustments within the next few pay periods.
Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this response.
