Summary of Bill HR 473
Bill 119 hr 473, also known as the "Federal In-Person Work Restoration Act," aims to require Federal agencies to return to in-person work at levels that were in place before the COVID-19 pandemic. The bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to this goal.
The bill is designed to address the shift to remote work that occurred during the pandemic and ensure that Federal agencies are operating at full capacity with employees working in-person. This is seen as important for maintaining productivity, collaboration, and efficiency within the government.
The specifics of how this return to in-person work will be implemented are not detailed in the bill itself, but it is likely that agencies will be required to develop plans for transitioning back to in-person work while still adhering to health and safety guidelines. Overall, the Federal In-Person Work Restoration Act is aimed at getting Federal agencies back to pre-pandemic levels of in-person work in order to ensure the effective functioning of the government.
