CFPB Gives Employees Two Weeks to Choose Relocation to Washington, D.C.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has set a two‑week deadline for staff to decide on a potential move to its headquarters in Washington, D.C. The decision follows a review of remote‑work policies. Employees must indicate their preference by the specified date. The bureau says the timeline allows for planning of office space and staffing needs. Workers who opt to relocate will receive assistance with moving costs. Those who choose to stay remote will continue under existing arrangements. The policy reflects broader trends in federal agencies reassessing location requirements. The outcome will shape the bureau’s future work‑environment strategy.
