The Trump team is blasting the Biden administration’s oversight of telework after a recent watchdog report pointed to lapses at the agency that manages the federal workforce.
The inspector general of the Office of Personnel Management issued a report earlier this week finding that the personnel agency needed to improve oversight of its telework and remote work policies.
The watchdog office flagged problems including telework and remote work agreements that had lapsed or were not on file and employee time sheets that weren’t compliant with the agency’s requirements.
The Trump administration pointed to the report as it accused its predecessors of allowing telework “abuse.” The Trump administration has made it a top priority to prod federal employees back to full-time in-person work.
