The Federal Employee Return to Work Act aims to exclude federal employees who telework as little as one day per week from receiving raises and locality pay, creating an unfair disparity between office workers and teleworkers.
Locality pay can make up a significant portion of a federal worker's income, providing a vital cushion against disparities in living costs across different areas, making the proposed cuts particularly damaging.
A recent report from the White House Office of Personnel Management highlights that 68 percent of frequent teleworkers want to stay in their roles, revealing the effectiveness of remote work.
Engagement levels among remote workers are significantly higher, with 77 percent reporting strong engagement compared to only 59 percent among those who work in the office.
