BENEFITS/ALLOWANCES: As a matter of policy, and as appropriate, a PSC is normally authorized the following benefits and allowances: (A) BENEFITS: Employer's FICA Contribution Contribution toward Health & Life Insurance Pay Comparability Adjustment Eligibility for Worker's Compensation Annual & Sick Leave Access to Embassy medical facilities, commissary and pouch mail service, if available (B) ALLOWANCES (If Applicable): Post Differential Danger Pay (if applicable in country) Moving and Storage allowance Housing, Allowance for PSC (and dependents, if applicable) Temporary Lodging Allowance (Note: An individual defined as a Resident Hire employee may only be eligible for those benefits listed under item A) ANSWER: Benefits and Allowances apply to all U.S. hires as applicable in the country specified. So if the person resides currently in the U.S. and is awarded the PSC contract, the person will be eligible for all the benefits described in section A and the all allowances as described in section B of the solicitation (with the exception of danger pay which does not apply to Johannesburg, South Africa). Local Resident Hires (defined as persons already residing in South Africa that are eligible to apply) will be allowed the benefits as described below, but will not be authorized to receive the allowances stated in section B. As stated above, currently the only allowance that does not apply to Johannesburg, South Africa is danger pay. However, if circumstances change in South Africa, danger pay may be authorized.
