AI Summary

This bill establishes requirements for state employee telework policies and schedules in Idaho. It defines key terms like "field employee" and "in-office employee," limits the percentage of in-office employees who can telework on a given day to 15%, and requires employees to enter into a telework agreement that outlines responsibilities and restrictions. The bill exempts field employees from these provisions and requires the three branches of state government, including higher education institutions, to annually report on telework usage. The bill also declares an emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
