[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Email came out from our Agency -- noted that they intended to fully comply but will discuss with peer agencies and fulfill collective bargaining obligations in revising the telework policies.

I don't wish to be in my agency leadership's shoes now. I'll gladly take the 2 days/PP TW that we used to have before COVID. Most of us are back 4-6 days/PP anyway and adding a couple of days is not a problem. The pointless pinprick requests for situational TW will drive my poor supervisor mad. [/quote]

Didn't you see the followup OPM did on situational telework? There will not be requests to your manager. Besides, it's your manager AND agency head who have to approve situational telework. https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USOPM/bulletins/3ce821e[/quote]

Here’s the one we got toda, first sentence of second paragraph was in bold

“
Dear employees,

Per the above Presidential Memorandum issued by President Trump this week and direction from OPM, USDA is developing a comprehensive implementation plan to return employees to traditional in-person workspaces and reduce the Department's dependence on telework and remote work over the next thirty days. Attached is USDA's new policy to implement this memorandum.

Employees previously scheduled for remote work and telework ARE NOT expected to report to a USDA office Monday, January 27, 2025. USDA department and agency leadership will inform staff of expectations for a phased return to work as office space is identified and telework and remote work policies are updated across the Department. As these policies are revised, consideration will be given to all applicable reasonable accommodation laws, workspace availability, and labor agreements.
