or sustained in the performance of duties in connection therewith, must be treated as
an employee for the purpose of the receiving agency's employee compensation
program, but may not receive benefits for any period for which the employee elects to
receive similar benefits as an employee under the sending agency's employee
compensation program.
5. A receiving agency may with the agreement of the sending agency pay an employee
from a sending agency a full or supplemental salary or wage not to exceed the
appropriate pay for an equivalent position in the receiving or sending agency.
