Education Department employees placed on leave for attending diversity training
Some federal employees at the Education Department have been placed on administrative leave for previously attending a diversity training. A memo reviewed by POLITICO that was sent Friday informed agency workers that they had been placed on leave because of the president’s executive order on DEIA and further guidance from the Office of Personnel Management.
The union said it’s possible that anyone who participated in the department’s “Diversity Change Agent Program,” a voluntary two-day training, could receive a notice. Upwards of 100 people may have participated in the training.
