OPM Issues Guidance for Agencies and Employees on Zika Virus
The Office of Personnel Management has released a memo instructing federal agencies to "utilize all available human resources flexibilities" to help protect federal employees from the effects of the Zika virus.The memo states:As the Zika virus spreads into certain parts of the United States, we must remember that our Federal workforce is our most valuable resource and take steps to minimize the impact of the Zika virus on our employees while continuing to ensure continuity of operations.Agencies are strongly encouraged to utilize all available human resources flexibilities, along with providing workplace accommodations, if appropriate, to support employees who have a significant risk of a severe outcome due to contracting the Zika virus—for example, female employees who are pregnant.
