scope:

Purpose. This instruction provides common, overarching policy direction governing NAVSUP activities' development of local programs for Telework (also known as flexiplace, telecommuting, or work-at-home) as defined in reference (a). It is not intended to address every issue that may arise in the course of such programs' development or administration. Rather, it has been developed to provide, in conjunction with reference (b) which is available at http://www.opm.gov/telework/policies/dodpolicy.asp and http://www.opm.gov/telework/policies/dodguide.asp, uniform direction in those aspects of telework for which a consistent, claimancy-wide approach is warranted for reasons of sound management, equity and the need for NAVSUP to function as a single enterprise. Resolution of matters not addressed herein is the responsibility of local activity management.
