Summary of Changes
The policy was updated to remove references to remote work and align with NDE terminology by using the term telework. References to Administrative Memo 509 were also updated to IOP 509.
The process has also changed. Requests for an initial work schedule or changes to an existing work schedule must now be initiated by the supervisor or office administrator. Instructions for submitting these requests can be found in IOP 509. Staff are no longer able to initiate requests for their own work schedules or schedule changes.
The policy was reformatted to align with the standardized structure and flow that will be used for all future policy updates.
