AFGE also says that mandating the number of hours agencies may authorize for employees’ use of official time to 25 percent illegally changes a provision of the law Congress passed in 1978
So they can use 25 percent of their time on union duties?
I guess I just don’t understand.
An article on FR yesterday indicated those who are union officials/stewards/reps are spending 100% of their time on union business instead of doing the jobs they were hired to do.
I believe it stated that ~470 VA employees are in that category. ....Think about all of the other agencies involved and then the billions of $$$$ wasted by unions.
The EO requires that government employees who are union reps must spend at least 75% of their working hours doing their jobs, instead of 100% doing union work.
So, basically, they’re limited to billing us for 10 hours of their time on union activities. What the f*ck are we paying these slobs for? They should have *0* hours they bill for union duties. They want to do their union stuff, do it on THEIR TIME, NOT MINE.
