FCC Employees Won't Return to 12th Street Headquarters Except to Move Possessions

FCC employees will continue to work remotely at least until the agency completes its move into its new headquarters near Union Station in Washington, with that move to be completed by Aug. 27, said an agencywide staff memo Monday, the commission told us. Whether the 900-some workers at the current headquarters will report to the new building immediately after Aug. 27 hasn't been determined, it said.

Employees have begun signing up to move their personal effects out, and that move-out will be done through Aug. 10, it said. The agency then will move office equipment, furniture and cubicles Aug. 10-27, it said. The FCC had said it expects telework to remain an employee option at least through August's end, and that it anticipates being more liberal in telework policies.
