By: FEDweek StaffMore uniformed and civilian employees should return to the office and curtail the telework they have conducted since the Covid-19 pandemic emerged, the commander of Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) has said.
Stars and Stripes reported that Gen. Duke Z. Richardson recently sent a memo to the managers of his military and civilian staffs, requesting that they take a hard look at remote working.
The communication implied that telework should be limited to what “mission needs allow,” the story stated. Richardson’s directive would apply to the command’s staff at its Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, headquarters, as well as its sites across the country and around the world.
The memo took a skeptical view of continuing historically high telework levels rather than more personnel commuting into duty stations.
