CNN —Tens of thousands of Social Security Administration staffers can continue teleworking into 2029 under a recent deal signed between their union and the agency. Depending on their job at the Social Security Administration, AFGE members have to report to the office between two and five days a week. “The Social Security Administration memorialized its preexisting telework policy into its existing contract with AFGE that was already effective through 2029,” a spokeswoman said. The telework privileges for many unionized federal workers are part of their collective bargaining agreements, making it more difficult to change the terms without negotiations. Overall, federal employees who are eligible to telecommute spend just over 61% of their regular working hours in person, the OMB found.

Social Security beneficiaries who call the agency's toll-free number may face hold times of more than 30 minutes. Long lines and shortened hours are common at many of the agency's field offices where beneficiaries may seek in-person assistance. Moreover, applicants for disability benefits face waits of more than six months for decisions from the agency, a panel of experts from the American Federation of Government Employees, which represents more than 40,000 Social Security Administration employees, said Monday. The service delays facing the program's approximately 67 million beneficiaries are signs of "an agency in crisis," according to Rich Couture, Council 215 president at the American Federation of Government Employees. AFGE leaders spoke out about the Social Security Administration's diminishing services amid funding constraints that have lasted for more than a decade.
