24 U.S.C. § 421 — Payment of residents for services
submitted 34 years ago by Pub. L. 101-510 to r/title-24-HOSPITALS-AND-ASYLUMS · 161 words · no verdicts yet
The Chief Operating Officer can pay residents for part-time or occasional work they do there. Getting paid this way doesn't make a resident a regular federal employee. The only exceptions are work-injury compensation and certain damage claims.
(a) Authority
The Chief Operating Officer of the Armed Forces Retirement Home* can accept part-time or occasional work from a resident of the Retirement Home, pay that resident for the work, and set the pay rate.
(b) Employment status
A resident who gets paid for this kind of work is not treated as holding a government "position" or being "employed" for purposes of section 5532 of title 5. The resident is also not treated as a federal employee for any other purpose — except for two: (1) the work-related injury compensation rules in subchapter I of chapter 81 of title 5, and (2) the rules on damage and loss claims in chapter 171 of title 28.
(c) "Position" defined
In subsection (b)(1), "position" has the meaning given in section 5531 of title 5.
The Chief Operating Officer is authorized to accept for the Armed Forces Retirement Home* the part-time or intermittent services of a resident of the Retirement Home, to pay the resident for such services, and to fix the rate of such pay.
A resident receiving pay for services authorized under subsection (a) shall not, by reason of performing such services and receiving pay for such services, be considered as—
receiving the pay of a position or being employed in a position for the purposes of section 5532 1 of title 5; or
being an employee of the United States for any purpose other than—
subchapter I of chapter 81 of title 5 (relating to compensation for work-related injuries); and
chapter 171 of title 28 (relating to claims for damages or loss).
In subsection (b)(1), the term “position” has the meaning given that term in section 5531 of title 5.
