This includes enumeration of those who are willing to take VRS. Once this is done, unit officers have been directed to wait for further instructions.
According to an official document, employees who have completed 20 years of service are eligible for VRS. They are required to give a month’s notice or should pay a month’s salary in lieu of notice.
Those who opt for this will be given regular terminal benefits, and some additional benefits.
