Non-emergency federal employees need not seek babysitters for their public school children Tuesday. Federal agencies in the D.C. area will be closed.

Non-emergency employees will get excused absence for the number of hours they were scheduled to work Tuesday. That includes employees already on pre-approved leave but does not include employees on leave without pay; leave without pay for military duty, workers' compensation or suspension; or another non-pay status.

Emergency employees are expected to report for work as scheduled.

Telecommuters are expected to work from their telecommuting locations.

Alternative work schedule employees not scheduled to work Tuesday are not entitled another day off.
