Comments on Telework Updates to U.S. Attorney's Policies and Procedures
Dear Director Wilkinson:
On behalf of the National Association of Assistant United States Attorneys (NAAUSA), representing the interests of the over 6,000 Assistant U.S. Attorneys (AUSAs) working in the 94 U.S. Attorney Offices, we write to provide comments on the proposed updates to USAP 3-4.650.001 included in Version 2.1.
The Executive Office for United States Attorneys (EOUSA) telework policy has historically supported a patchwork approach to telework availability and flexibility for U.S. Attorney Offices. The absence of a broad adoption of telework flexibility has left some offices without any access to the benefit, which is critical for employee effectiveness, wellbeing, and retention. The proposal USAP 3-4.650.001 included in Version 2.1 ultimately continues this history.
