Watchdog finds Biden administration 'abuse' of remote work policies

Federal employees widely abused the Biden administration‘s telework policies, according to an inspector general report released by the Office of Personnel Management on Friday.

“Under the previous administration, OPMʼs telework and remote work policies were mismanaged and oversight was virtually nonexistent,” acting OPM Director Chuck Ezell said in a statement. “That era of telework abuse is over. At President Trumpʼs direction, OPM has restored in-person operations to ensure federal employees are working for the taxpayers.”
