Hundreds of General Services Administration (GSA) employees laid off earlier this year have received offers to return, The Associated Press reported Wednesday. The former employees have until the end of this week to accept the offer from the GSA, and they would restart work at the agency Oct. 6. The GSA constructs, manages and preserves government buildings.
The agency was an early target of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which was created by President Trump and led by tech billionaire Elon Musk. Earlier this year, thousands of GSA employees either resigned, accepted early retirement offers or were pushed out.
In total, more than 201,000 federal government employees have departed since Trump took office in January, according to tracking by the Partnership for Public Service. Scores employees who either resigned or were laid off at the IRS, Labor Department and National Park Service have also been reinstated, according to the AP.
In March, the GSA listed nearly 450 federal buildings it may seek to sell. There are 45 sites still listed as “assets identified for accelerated disposition” on the GSA website.
