FAQs

I am scheduled to be TDY on the RTES Contract Start date of 4/20.  What should I do? 

You will remain on the RWESS contract with your current employer until your TDY is complete.  Please be sure to keep your Section Manager informed of your travel schedule during this time, so plans can be made to transition you to ASRI after your trip.

I have vacation planned soon after the start of the RTES contract.  What should I do? 

Please let your manager know of your vacation plans as soon as possible.  ASRI will allow you to carry a negative balance of up to 40 hours with management approval. 

What is the Telework policy for RTES?

The current RTES contract does not have provisions for Telework.  However, it is our understanding that a Telework provision will be provided for in a future contract modification. 

What will happen to the People First Program? 

The RTES contract will continue with ASRI’s version of the People First Program call “1 Connected Team (1CT).”  The 1CT program was modeled after ERC’s People First program, so nothing will change. 

Do I need get a new CAC?

No, all CACs will be transferred to the new contract with no action required by you.  However, if your CAC is expiring before the RTES Contract start date of 4/20, please notify your manager. 

Safety Awareness

Team JTS will emphasize safety throughout this Phase-In period and ask that you make it a top priority as well.

Phase-In activities can create anxious feelings about anticipated changes, the hiring process, and the performance of day-to-day job functions. These feelings can create distractions that could cause lapses in safety, security, and environmental awareness. We want to emphasize how critical it is to make safety a top priority during this Phase-In period.

Please take this opportunity to:

  • Take a “time-out” for safety, environmental, and security awareness. Calibrate yourselves to the safety, environmental, and security requirements that are necessary to perform your job.
    • Ensure that you follow all applicable Standard Operating Procedures.
    • Ensure all Contract Operations are performed correctly.
  • Be attentive to changing circumstances in the work place. Maintain situational awareness by frequently assessing your working environment for any changes that may impact your ability to safely perform your job duties.
  • Identify “high-consequence” activities that you may engage in and take steps to ensure that all hazards have been identified and controlled.
  • Notify your Supervisor or Manager of any safety, environmental, or security issues that require immediate attention so that they may be corrected.

Thank you for your attention to safety awareness!
