A 2019 law mandates that furloughed employees receive back pay upon their reemployment, ensuring compensation for time not worked. However, the shutdown’s duration is creating uncertainty regarding this obligation. Despite efforts to mitigate the impact, federal workers are currently awaiting confirmation of their back pay amounts. The continued delay is raising concerns among those affected, and the agency is working to address the situation.
