CDC eases telework restrictions for disabled employees, as HHS faces 9,000-request backlog
Podcast: The Federal Drive with Terry GertonPublished On: Tue Apr 14 2026
Description: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is giving employees with disabilities more flexibility to telework as a reasonable accommodation. CDC supervisors will once again be able to grant telework as an interim reasonable accommodation, while employees wait for final approval from the Department of Health and Human Services. HHS rolled out a new policy last year that strictly limited medical telework. Federal News Network’s Jory Heckman has more.
