NSWCPC telework bolsters mission

PANAMA CITY, Fla. - Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City, Fla., is adjusting its work schedule by maximizing telework opportunities of nearly 1,500 workers. By implementing telework as an option to encourage social distancing related to the coronavirus, NSWCPC is reducing the exposure of the community and its workforce. “We still have a national defense mission, and a cadre of mission essential personnel will continue to report to work,” said Capt. Aaron Peters, NSWCPC commanding officer. “Whether from home or from the base, we will ensure we meet our national defense mission requirements.” NSWCPC is the nation’s leader in the research, development, test, and evaluation of mine warfare systems, mines, naval special warfare systems, diving and life support systems, and other missions that occur in the littoral or coastal regions.
