The information below is based on GESTA’s understanding of recent events as of this date. Since management has put very little information in writing, some of this information also comes directly from employees who have been personally involved in the building closures or who have received verbal information from management. We acknowledge the disruption or loss of these facilities represent decades of our colleagues’ work and may carry deep personal and institutional impacts. The brevity of these updates is not meant to reflect the depth of the impacts. We are also aware indirectly of impacts to multiple laboratories and buildings not mentioned here. If you have a (non-controlled) status update or information you would like to provide GESTA regarding the closures or moves of a building or lab for a future bulletin, please feel free to send it to our tipline email or share it via our Survey on this topic.
GESTA members prepared a memo, which was sent to Center Management on September 4th, titled “Justification for Maintaining the On-Site Health Unit and Fitness Center”. It quotes NASA and Goddard Procedural Requirements (NPRs and GPRs) that require the existence of an on-site health unit. Utilizing employee input from GESTA’s Facilities Closures Bargaining Brainstorm, the memo also lists services currently provided by the health unit beyond those required by the NPRs and GPRs. The full memo is available here.
