President Drake extends COVID-19-related paid administrative leave time frame

President Drake extended the time frame to use these hours to June 30, 2021. His order does not increase the number of EPAL hours, but critically allows employees to continue the use of the allotted time as the impacts of the pandemic continue. 

Eligible employees may use EPAL hours if an employee or family member becomes ill with COVID-19; an employee is caring for their children when schools or daycare facilities are closed; or an employee has been directed not to come to their worksite and/or their unit has moved to remote operations, and it is not operationally feasible for the employee to work remotely.
