  1. Below is an explanation of the different danger pay entries 1-5 and what they mean with regards to danger pay payments. :

Entry on Danger Form System processing of the entry
1. Inside the parent danger pay area No action, all days marked as 1 are paid days
2. Outside the parent danger pay area on rest and recuperation 7 days rule;
  • up to 7 calendar days (cumulative within the same month) no action, as those days are paid days;
  • if more than 7 counts of entries with value 2, from day 8 produce “no danger pay days” records.
    .
3. Outside the parent danger pay area on official business travel, including TDY to non-dangerous pay area 7 days rule;
  • up to 7 calendar days (cumulative within the same month) no action, as those days are paid days;
  • if more than 7 counts of entries with value 2, from day 8 produce “no danger pay days” records.
    .
4. Outside the parent danger pay area on official business travel, including TDY to danger pay area Not paid days, “no danger pay days” are produced for all days marked as 4, because the s/m is expected to claim danger pay expense from the travel module for the days spent in dangerous destination.
5. Outside the parent danger pay area for other reasons Not paid, “no danger pay days” records are produced for all days marked as 5.
9. Days before initial appointment/reappointment and/or after separation Not paid, no action.
