This is most likely due to an incorrect setting for the timezone; my guess
is that it doesn't know that it should be on daylight savings time. To
verify this, check /etc/environment on the workstation; there should be a
line in it that says
TZ=EST5EDT
If it instead says
TZ=EST5
that is the cause of the problem; to fix it, edit the line so that does
indeed have the "EDT" at the end.
