handle is hein.gao/gaobablji0001 and id is 1 raw text is: B-258316 June 2, 1995 Mr. William A. Smoot, Jr. National Aeronautics and Space Administration BFH Payroll Unit 300 E Street SW Washington, DC 20546 Dear Mr. Smoot: This responds to your August 23, 1994, letter requesting a decision whether a proposed work schedule complies with applicable laws and regulations. You state that your agency is trying to be innovative and flexible per the President's July 11, 1994, memorandum concerning expanding family-friendly work arrangements in the Executive Branch,' but you have concerns regarding the proposed work schedule discussed below. The request concerns a first 40-hour employee, that is one for whom it is impracticable to prescribe a regular schedule of definite hours of duty for each workday and, thus, whose first 40 hours of duty performed within the workweek is considered the employee's administrative workweek. You state that the employee involved would like to work his first 40 hours anytime during the first week of the pay period and then take 40 hours of annual leave the second week of the pay period. Under such an arrangement, the employee could, for example, work from Sunday through Wednesday the first week, be off without charge to leave on Thursday and Friday (and we presume on Saturday), and with the 40 hours of leave, the employee would be off the entire second week of the pay period. For the first week of the next pay period, the employee would not begin to work until either Wednesday or Thursday without charging annual leave for the beginning of the week. Under this proposal, as we understand it, the employee could be off work 1The President's July 11, 1994, Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies encourages the broad use of flexible work arrangements. However, by its own terms, this memorandum does not create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural against the United States. 243531 0 G / 0 2- I
