The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has announced a policy requiring political appointees, senior executives, and non-union employees within 50 miles of their workplaces to return to in-person work by February 24, 2024, following President Trump's directive. This decision affects a significant portion of the VA's workforce, which totals approximately 480,000 individuals. While the return-to-office mandate currently addresses non-union workers, guidance for union employees is expected soon. Acting VA Secretary Todd Hunter emphasized that standardizing work arrangements will enhance productivity and collaboration across the department.
The Department of Veterans Affairs ordered non-union employees to return to the office by Feb. 24, 2024, following a directive for ending remote work.
Todd Hunter stated that performance and productivity at the VA will improve if all employees adhere to the same in-person work standards.
