Bill Barr is leaving some Justice Department staff hanging on if they get paid leave or flexible work
Published 6 mins ago on April 13, 2020By Sarah K. Burris



Attorney General Bill Barr and the top officials at the Justice Department are keeping the staff high and dry trying to figure out how to work in the era of the coronavirus crisis.

According to BuzzFeed News, a letter was sent by DOJ staff asking for clarification about paid time off and flexible work schedules.

“Each office within the Justice Department has been responsible for developing policies that address how employees can work during the pandemic, including how much flexibility they have while working from home, and how much additional coronavirus-related paid leave they can get while caring for elderly relatives and children home from school,” the report said. “Those policies vary, and some offices haven’t issued one at all, according to a letter from the DOJ Gender Equality Network (DOJ GEN) to management."
