[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if the adjustments happen more than once.

My company says we do “locality pay” and since my husband is in the military I get that.  I’m the housing component of military compensation is supposed to be tied to local cost of living.  There are places like Hawaii and San Diego and DC where there are constant issues with getting decent housing/ schools on those COL differentials so I understand it is complicated to calculate those.

And when I moved to a lower cost of living area- my pay was reduced.  But when I moved to DC the company took the position that since they hadn’t asked me to move here, they wouldn’t do the COL adjustment.  Then when they asked me to move to the NY area- they said my pay was already based on DC locality oh so there would be no locality increase.

Fortunately I had saved all of the correspondence/ meeting notes over the years related to the locality pay topic and my boss was able to get that fixed.

But I remain very cautious about how locality pay is actually implemented.[/quote]
