Updated Telework Policy as of 5 days ago...

Can we talk about this updated telework policy for a second? https://www.hhs.gov/about/agencies/asa/ohr/hr-library/990-3/index.html

it was updated 5 days ago and I no longer see mention of medical appts and telework and there's no mention of religion, barely any mention of military spouses although it's there but what did stand out to me was that situational/ad hoc telework is capped at 80 hours a year which was not included before! What sense does that even make? Now that could make sense if they were allowing recurring telework, but there's really no mention of it in the updated guidance, so it's just all confusing. Just general telework and situational/ad hoc telework. I get it -- times are different -- but it would be nice to have some type of work and life balance no matter how small.
