Petition for TSC flexband cancellations

Sign the petition! Frank Bisignano: Restore Flexible Work Schedules for SSA Employees

Members,

I signed a petition on Action Network telling Frank Bisignano to Restore Flexible Work Schedules for SSA Employees.

Last week, SSA suddenly stripped our teleservice center workers of their long-held flexible work schedule benefits, for no apparent reason, in the middle of a pay period, with no warning. This senseless action threw personal lives and family situations into chaos with no time to react. You deserve better! It's time to stand up and speak out! We have prepared a petition for you to sign, to be delivered to Commissioner Bisignano, telling him that the loss of flexible work schedules has harmed you and your family, that it will harm public service, and that it is critical that the Agency reinstate your contractual rights. Your voice is essential to restoring this important flexibility, and to demand fairness and dignity in how you are treated by the Agency. Act today. Sign our petition now!

AFGE Informational Notice - AFGE TSC Flextime 06-20-25Download

On June 20, 2025 at 5:00 pm the Agency released the following notice to the union. AFGE has requested to discuss the changes with the Agency.

AFGE Contract:

Article 10, Section 6, Suspension of Flextime and Flexible 5/4/9 and 4/40 Work Arrangements.

A.
Should management determine, after consideration of bona fide operational needs, that it is unable to provide the level of service required to support agency operations and provide service to the American public, the appropriate management official may suspend, for the duration of the operational need, the flexible 5/4/9 or 4/40 schedule and/or credit hours. In these situations, management may assign employees to a fixed shift.
Management may also direct specific arrival or departure times. This notification will normally be made 48 hours in advance.

B.
Employees who are scheduled to attend training may have to revert to the working hours in effect at the training site. Their flexible 5/4/9 or 4/40 work arrangement tour may also be suspended.
C.
If an employee’s flexible work arrangement is suspended, it will automatically be restored as soon as possible after the reason for the suspension needs have been met (i.e., the next pay period).
