Eliminating Paid Work Hours for Federal Employee Union Activities.
This bill ends the practice of federal employees, who are also union representatives, conducting union business during paid working hours (known as "official time"). All activities related to labor organizations must now be performed outside of duty status. The change aims to ensure taxpayer funds are used exclusively for core government functions.
Key points
Federal employees acting as union representatives will no longer be paid by the government for time spent on union duties.
Union activities, such as negotiations or grievance handling, must be conducted during non-duty hours.
