The Trump administration is offering buyouts to federal employees who choose to resign, providing about eight months of salary to those who leave by next week.
The move aims to reduce the government workforce rapidly, with uncertain implications for retirement benefits and job security.
The administration warns of downsizing through restructurings and furloughs for those who do not take the buyout.
This mass buyout offer is unprecedented, with estimates suggesting 5% to 7% of employees may opt to leave.
Federal workers are expressing concerns about the chaotic situation and uncertainty surrounding their benefits and future employment.
