 i suspect this needs congressional approval;


Via: USA Today:

The Trump administration is offering buyouts to all federal employees who don’t wish to return to work at the office, in a push to significantly reduce the size of the federal workforce.

The offer, outlined in a memo the U.S. Office of Personnel Management sent to employees Tuesday, would give federal workers eight months of pay and benefits through September if they resign by Feb. 6.

“If you choose not to continue in your current role in the federal workforce, we thank you for your service to your country and you will be provided with a dignified, fair departure from the federal deferred resignation program,” the memo reads.

The move, first reported by Axios, comes after President Donald Trump signed an order last week requiring all federal workers to return to in-person work. Work-from-home policies enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic remain in place for many federal workers.

The memo was titled “Fork in the Road,” the same subject line that billionaire businessman Elon Musk used when he gave X employees a similar ultimatum in 2022...........https://www.cryptogon.com/?p=71924
