Will Laid-Off IRS Workers Be Rehired?
According to recent news, Judge Alsup, who was appointed by President Bill Clinton in San Francisco, has mandated that the departments of Defense, Treasury, Energy, Interior, Agriculture, and Veterans Affairs must “immediately” rehire all probationary employees who were terminated. The judge criticized the Office of Personnel Management for making an “unlawful” decision regarding these layoffs.
Since the IRS is part of the Treasury Department, this development could potentially bring some positive news for laid-off IRS workers.
One response
It appears that there is some potential good news for IRS workers who were laid off, especially in light of the recent court ruling affecting various departments under the Treasury. Since the IRS operates under the Department of the Treasury, this ruling could set a precedent for returning probationary employees to their positions. However, it’s important to note that the specifics of the implementation and whether this directly applies to the IRS will depend on further actions taken by the department in response to the ruling. It’s definitely worth keeping an eye on updates regarding this situation!
