  • President Donald Trump has followed through with another campaign trail promise by signing an executive order requiring federal employees to return to the office.

The article from MSN discusses an executive order signed by former President Donald Trump aimed at ending remote work for federal employees, effectively slashing a plan by the Biden administration to expand telework. The order mandates that federal agencies revert to pre-COVID-19 work arrangements, requiring employees to return to their offices. This move is seen as a reversal of Biden's initiative which sought to make remote work a more permanent fixture in the federal workforce, citing benefits like reduced commuting, lower office costs, and improved work-life balance. Critics argue that Trump's order could disrupt productivity, increase costs, and negatively impact employee morale, especially given the advancements in technology that support remote work. The order reflects Trump's broader policy of promoting in-person work environments, which he believes fosters better collaboration and oversight.
