We urge federal employees to exercise extreme caution and to be alert to changing weather and road conditions in their area.
Non-emergency employees must notify their supervisor of their intent
to use unscheduled leave or unscheduled telework. Eligible employees
may-
- Use annual leave, earned compensatory time off, earned credit hours, or leave without pay; or
- As permitted by their agency's policies, procedures, and
collective bargaining agreements, telework from home on a non-telework
day, if the employee has a telework agreement in place that is approved
for unscheduled telework.
Employees scheduled to telework on the day of the announcement are expected to begin telework on time or request unscheduled leave.
Non-emergency employees may request supervisory approval to change
their AWS day off or rearrange their work hours under a flexible work
schedule.
Non-emergency employees may request sick leave if they meet the
qualifying conditions under law, OPM regulations, and follow their
agency's policies and procedures.
Emergency employees are expected to report to their worksite on time unless otherwise directed by their agencies.
