I have heard the Governor intends to impose a furlough on state employees. What is this, and does it affect us?
The Governor proposed to the Legislature that all state employees be furloughed (not work) one day each month for the next year and a half, a total of 19 days. That is, employees would not be paid for these 19 days, resulting in a pay cut of five percent. Additional changes to holidays and overtime on holidays also were proposed. The Chancellor’s Office has stated that CSU employees will not be required to take furlough days as proposed by the Governor, and any changes to state holidays would need to be renegotiated with our labor unions.
