President Donald Trump has signed an executive order requiring all federal workers to return to full-time, in-person work. This move marks a significant shift in the government’s remote work policy, which was expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic .
According to the order, agency leaders must “take all necessary steps to terminate remote work arrangements and require employees to return to work in-person at their respective duty stations on a full-time basis”. However, the order does allow for exemptions to be made on a case-by-case basis.
This decision is part of Trump’s broader effort to reform the federal government and reduce the influence of federal employee unions. The order has sparked concerns among federal workers and unions, who argue that it will negatively impact productivity and work-life balance .
Trump’s administration has argued that the move is necessary to improve accountability and efficiency within the federal government. The order is one of several executive actions taken by Trump on his first day back in office, including the reinstatement of Schedule F, which allows for the firing of certain federal employees without due process .
