(Reuters) - Layoffs of federal workers would be "likely" if too few employees quit under the White House's deferred resignation program, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday, citing a memo from a General Services Administration official.
The White House last week offered 2 million civilian full-time federal workers to remain on the payroll through Sept. 30 but without having to work under the resignation offer, which is set to expire on Thursday.
