It is your responsibility as an employee to make sure that your clearances are not expired. HR will attempt to provide a heads up to employees with soon-to-expire clearances, but it is the employees individual responsibility. If your clearances have expired, you will not be permitted to continue to work. Please respond promptly to HR staff who reach out to discuss your clearances.
