VA employees would get 60-day notice before layoffs; VA would plan its workforce better.
This bill would require the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to create a five-year plan for its workforce. It would also make sure VA employees get at least 60 days' notice before any layoffs. These changes aim to improve how the VA serves veterans and manages its staff.
Today, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is not legally required to have a five-year workforce plan or give 60 days' notice before layoffs. This bill would require the VA to create and update a detailed five-year workforce plan. It would also mandate a 60-day advance notice to Congress and affected employees before any layoffs, and require more detailed reports on office reorganizations.
