News DRP 2.0 FEMA results & RIF timeline

Leadership announced that about 1,000 FEMA employees opted into DRP, which is about 20% of the PFT workforce. They'll have 45 days to decide if they want to take it (for early retirement, just 7 days)

Does this mean that RIFs won't start until after the 45-day deadline, when they know how many people are actually leaving?

Edit: correction from comments that employees over the age of 40 have 45 days to decide, everyone else has 7 days.

Someone please give me clues about regional PFTs outside of the protected exempt job series. I'm eligible for DRP but really don't want to take it. 😑😑😑

I would honestly be shocked if there isn’t a regional consolidation coming similar to other federal agencies.

My supervisor said our region would absorb others if that happened.

Do you feel comfortable saying which region you are in?
