# 5 U.S.C. § 6127 - Compressed schedules; agencies authorized to use
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
(a) Notwithstanding section 6101 of this title, each agency may establish programs which use a 4-day workweek or other compressed schedule.
|
||
|
||
(b) (1) An employee in a unit with respect to which an organization of Government employees has not been accorded exclusive recognition shall not be required to participate in any program under subsection (a) unless a majority of the employees in such unit who, but for this paragraph, would be included in such program have voted to be so included.
|
||
|
||
(2) Upon written request to any agency by an employee, the agency, if it determines that participation in a program under subsection (a) would impose a personal hardship on such employee, shall—
|
||
|
||
(A) except such employee from such program; or
|
||
|
||
(B) reassign such employee to the first position within the agency—
|
||
|
||
(i) which becomes vacant after such determination,
|
||
|
||
(ii) which is not included within such program,
|
||
|
||
(iii) for which such employee is qualified, and
|
||
|
||
(iv) which is acceptable to the employee.
|
||
|
||
A determination by an agency under this paragraph shall be made not later than 10 days after the day on which a written request for such determination is received by the agency.
|
||
