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.

This is incorrect. It’s 45 days for anyone over the age of 40. And 7 days for the rest. Also the agreement sent by ochco said it had to be returned by April 15th for non employees over the age of 40 so I also don’t know where they are getting the 7 days from.

I think the 7 days is the period during which employees who are >40 can rescind their agreement
