Each grade has 10 step rates (steps 1-10) that are each worth approximately 3 percent of the employee's salary. Within-grade step increases are based on an acceptable level of performance and longevity (waiting periods of 1 year at steps 1-3, 2 years at steps 4-6, and 3 years at steps 7-9). It normally takes 18 years to advance from step 1 to step 10 within a single GS grade if an employee remains in that single grade.
By the end of the week you will know your average daily steps. You might be surprised how many, or how few, steps you get in each day. A reasonable goal is to increase average daily steps each week by 500 per day until you can easily average 10,000 per day.
