The White House will give agencies two weeks to plan for the return of federal workers to the office, implementing an order President Donald Trump signed on the first day of his term to end Covid-era work-from-home accommodations.

The White House expects up to 10% of federal employees to quit in a buyout program meant to end work-from-home practices, senior administration officials said.

Federal employees who accept the buyout would be given 8 months of pay and benefits through September and are exempt from return-to-office policy.
