Hi,
Was just wondering whether it was legal for a government contractor in the Beltway area (headquartered in VA) to require employees to:
1) take paid leave;
2) take unpaid leave; or
3) make up missed hours within the next 9 business days (ie pay period)
solely because the employer
1) cannot provide workspace at headquarters; and
2) does not allow telecommuting
on a day that the Federal government is shut down by Presidential decree? The employees in question usually work on-site at a Federal agency, whose doors would be shut on such a day, precluding them from working on-site.
Thanks,
MUB
