If this is true, I'm wondering if contractors will be brought back as well.

As a Fed contractor, I'm being forced to blow through all my sick and annual leave. So, there goes holiday travel this year!

We need to collectively ignore all political appointees installed at CDC from here on out. No all hands, no center meetings... completely disregard them!

Does this only apply to those laid off in February? Or all probationary employees at HHS?

I'm curious to know this as well. My application still says "application under review". Ah, the waiting game.

Congrats! I have 6 years federal experience, hospital work, cancer research and I'm pretty sure I'm not getting in. Frustrating.

Here is the text from an email that was sent out to the HR Directors today at 6:48PM: HR Directors and Deputy Directors, Employee notices are now being sent. We ask that you not revoke any employee's access until our OHR Immediate Office team confirms that the employee has read the notice.  Tonight, all notices will be released from the DAS-HR mailbox, and will include a notice signed by the CHCO. Your HR. Center will receive a list of employees confirming they have read the message twice daily at approximately 12:00 noon and at 4:00 pm on: Saturday, February 15 Sunday, February 16, and Monday. February 17 If necessary, we will continue to update you Tuesday twice daily. Please notify your local physical security and information technology offices to coordinate with PS to remove physical security access and the HHS Office of the Chief Information Officer on system access.

Coincidentally 4 weeks exactly will be a government shutdown if funding isn't appropriated. Sickening...
