FCA employees also receive supplemental geographic pay. To recognize cost-of-living differences across the country, the amount of an employee’s supplemental geographic pay depends on his or her duty location.
Geographic pay is combined with an employee’s base pay to make up his or her adjusted base pay. Benefits, including retirement, are calculated according to adjusted base pay.
| Supplemental Geographic Pay | |

| Sacramento, California | 29.76% |
| Rest of United States | 17.06% |
