Section 401 of the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995 ( 2 U.S.C. 1401 ), as amended by section 207, is further amended by adding at the end the following new subsection: At the request of a covered employee who alleges covered harassment by the covered employee’s employing office, during the pendency of any of the procedures available under this title for consideration of the allegation, the employing office shall permit the covered employee to carry out the employee’s responsibilities from a remote location instead of from the location of the employing office.
If, in the determination of the covered employee’s employing office, a covered employee who makes a request under this paragraph cannot carry out the employee’s responsibilities from a remote location, the employing office shall grant paid leave to a covered employee during the pendency of the procedures available under this title for the covered employee. If the office of a Member or committee of the House of Representatives grants a covered employee of such office paid leave under paragraph (1), during the period in which the employee is on paid leave, the employee shall not be counted among the number of employees of the office— in the case of the office of a Member of the House, for purposes of section 104(a) of the House of Representatives Administrative Reform Technical Corrections Act ( 2 U.S.C. 5321(a) ); or in the case of the office of a committee of the House, for purposes of any rule or regulation of the House that governs the number of employees the committee may appoint.
Paragraph
(1)does not apply to the extent that it is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of any collective bargaining agreement that is in effect with respect to an employing office. .
