The Air Force Personnel Center has announced a
revised AFPCI 36-6, Official Duty Hours instruction
including a policy on credit hours, telework, and
uncommon tour of duty programs.
The revised instruction sets normal duty hours from
7:30 to 4:30 Monday thru Friday, and says employees
may flex their hours, with director and supervisor
approval between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. as long as they are
at work between the core hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Personnel may schedule a mandatory 30-mintue lunch
outside of the normal schedule with supervisory
approval, but it may not be used to shorten the duty day.
Credit hours now allow employees to work up to two extra
hours and up to eight on Sunday to build up leave — but
those hours must be worked between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
and be requested in writing before being worked. A
maximum of 24 credit hours may be earned in a pay period.
The instruction is posted on the AFPC Intranet under
