Employees must be available by phone and email during business hours, according to the notice, which provides an email for them to contact “to end that.”
The letters come after most USAID employees lost access to internal systems over the weekend as Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency put the agency through a “woodchipper.”
One USAID employee said they felt “helpless” after receiving the letter.
Another said they were “disappointed that our lawmakers in the majority seem complicit or at least tacitly approve.”
One employee who lost access Monday said they had not received a copy of the letter to their personal email.
