RAN organization call held 2pm CST. less then 10% affected not enough takers on MVO package and need to make up difference all regions. They would not say how many took package or number of affected employees on call. WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY VOLUNTEERS THIS ROUND DUE TO MVO RECENTLY OFFERED. Individuals affected will receive surplus package in mid-August/ or within two weeks. Leadership will rank individuals based on skills, performance, leadership, experience, last years performance rating etc. Seniority is not taken into account. 60 day off payroll Oct. 19th, 30 day OPT out off payroll September 10th.

FYI - Beware of new vacation guidelines if use entitled per beginning of year versus what was earned you may owe restitution.Rep on call did state after question to look up guidelines on HR One Stop for accrual guideline.

My ATO group so far no meeting invites. Maybe some avp’s are slower to send out?
