Correctional Officer (GS-0007) pay, 2026
Series 0007 is paid on the General Schedule, so pay depends on the grade on the posting and the locality area where you work, not the series itself. Law enforcement officer positions in this series are paid on the higher LEO special rates instead. A posting like GS-0007-09/11/12 starts at GS-9 and can grow to GS-12 without competing again.
