特朗普政府2025年在雇员行政休假费用上支出95亿美元，较2023年增长六倍，这一增长源于政府为精简联邦 workforce 推出的相关举措。
根据美国政府问责局（GAO）周二发布的报告，带薪行政休假的使用量从2023年到2025年增长了435%。该局计算显示，其中67亿美元源于选择参与延期辞职计划（DRP）的雇员，该计划是政府效率部（DOGE）为精简政府机构推出的面向联邦雇员的买断方案。
相比之下，根据GAO的报告，2023年和2024年的行政休假薪资成本总计为32亿美元。
该辞职计划于2025年1月由美国联邦人事管理办公室监督推行，旨在激励联邦政府雇员离开各个机构。这项买断计划允许选择参与的雇员辞职或停止工作，但仍可领取薪资至2025年9月30日。
特朗普政府曾预计将有20万名联邦雇员参与该计划，但GAO在报告中根据行政休假数据估算，共有144312名雇员接受了买断提议。
报告显示，带薪行政休假在2025年7月达到峰值，当月报告的300万个工作日缺勤中，有250万个是因延期辞职计划产生的。
美国联邦人事管理办公室主任斯科特·库珀表示，周三发布的这份报告未能区分“一项一次性支出（95亿美元）可使联邦政府雇员规模减少27万人，且每年可为纳税人节省400亿美元开支”这两者之间的区别。
“这种400%的投资回报率对纳税人而言是巨大的好处，”他在一份声明中说道。
政府效率部曾通过其名为“收据墙”的网页宣称，通过削减联邦合同、租赁和拨款的努力，已节省了2150亿美元联邦资金。但根据上月发布的另一份GAO报告，其中约1100亿美元的数字存在夸大。该报告指出，政府效率部未透明说明其计算该数字的方式，无法提供“足够信息来验证其所使用的计算方法”，其报告的节省额中有96%无法得到核实。
周三发布的这份报告称，GAO在处理各机构提交的行政休假数据时遇到了限制，报告指出美国联邦人事管理办公室“并不清楚用于精简 workforce 行动的带薪行政休假的实际成本”，因为与延期辞职计划相关的行政休假支出被归入了普通带薪行政休假的总数据中。
报告还称，他们无法确定该休假计划原本旨在实现的长期节省目标是否真正达成。
“由于缺乏追踪用于精简 workforce 行动的带薪行政休假的机制，联邦领导层可能无法掌握所需数据，以判断全国范围的成本节约目标是否正在实现，”报告中写道。
GAO建议人事管理办公室提升其带薪行政休假数据的透明度，并为用于支持精简 workforce 行动的带薪行政休假设立新的分类。
美国联邦人事管理办公室的数据显示，自特朗普总统2025年1月就职以来，已有27.1万名雇员离开联邦政府。

The Trump administration spent $9.5 billion on employee administrative leave costs in 2025, a sixfold increase from 2023 that was spurred by the administration’s push to cut down the federal workforce.
According to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report published Tuesday, the use of paid administrative leave increased by 435% from 2023 to 2025. They calculate that $6.7 billion of this was due to employees who opted into the Deferred Resignation Program, the administration’s buyout offer to federal employees that was part of efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, to shrink the government.
By comparison, administrative leave salary costs for 2023 and 2024 combined were $3.2 billion, according to the GAO’s report.
The resignation program was overseen and offered by the federal Office of Personnel Management in January 2025 to incentivize federal government employees to leave various agencies. The buyout program allowed employees who opted in to resign or stop working but still receive pay through Sept. 30, 2025.
The Trump administration had projected that 200,000 federal employees would opt into the program, though the GAO estimated in their report that 144,312 employees accepted the buyout offer, according to administrative leave data.
The report states that paid administrative leave peaked in July 2025, when 2.5 million of the 3 million leave workdays reported that month were due to the DRP.
Scott Kupor, OPM director, said Wednesday’s report failed to highlight the difference between “a one-time expense ($9.5 billion) to reduce the size of the federal government by 270,000 employees and the $40 billion per year savings in taxpayer dollars that this reduction provides.”
“That 400% return on investment is a massive benefit to the taxpayer,” he said in a statement.
DOGE had claimed, through its webpage called the “Wall of Receipts,” that $215 billion of federal funding had been cut through their efforts to slash federal contracts, leases and grants. According to a different GAO report released last month, about $110 billion of this was inflated. That report said that DOGE was not transparent about how it calculated this number and could not provide “sufficient information to verify the method used” to calculate 96% of its reported savings.
Wednesday’s report said that the GAO ran into limitations with the administrative leave data reported by the agencies, and their report states that OPM “does not know the actual costs of the paid administrative leave used for workforce reduction efforts” because the DRP-associated administrative leave efforts were lumped in with the general paid administrative leave numbers.
They also said they were unable to determine if the long-term savings goals that the leave program was meant for were actually met.
“Without a mechanism to track paid administrative leave for workforce reduction efforts, federal leaders may not have the data needed to understand whether government-wide cost saving goals are being met,” the report states.
The GAO recommended the personnel office to address the transparency of their paid administrative leave data, and to create a new category for paid administrative leave used to support workforce reduction efforts.
Data from OPM states that 271,000 employees have left the federal government since President Trump began his term in January 2025.
