NOAA Employees Told to Pause Work With ‘Foreign Nationals’

In a recent development, employees at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have been instructed to temporarily halt their work with ‘foreign nationals’.

This move comes as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety and security of sensitive information and data within the agency.

While the specific reasons behind this directive have not been disclosed, it is believed to be related to national security concerns.

The decision has raised concerns among employees who regularly collaborate with international partners and researchers.

NOAA has not provided a timeline for when this pause on working with foreign nationals will be lifted.

This directive echoes similar measures taken by other government agencies in the past to protect against potential security risks.

Employees are being encouraged to seek guidance from their supervisors if they have any questions or concerns about the new directive.

It remains to be seen how this temporary halt will impact the work and collaborations at NOAA.

NOAA is committed to upholding the highest standards of security and integrity in its operations and partnerships.

Further updates on this situation are expected to be provided to employees in the coming days.
