The Telework Enhancement Act

The Telework Enhancement Act is a U.S. law that encourages federal government agencies to allow eligible employees to work remotely, or telework, when appropriate. It aims to improve workforce flexibility, increase productivity, reduce commuting time and costs, and enhance work-life balance. The law requires agencies to create formal telework policies, identify employees who can telework, and establish clear guidelines to ensure work quality and accountability. Overall, it promotes flexible work arrangements to benefit both government operations and employees.
