I read on July 28 that Governor Schwarzenegger has directed through executive order that state agencies reinstate furlough days until a new budget is passed. Does this affect us?
CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed reiterated in a statement July 28, 2010 that CSU employees will not be subject to furloughs. Chancellor Reed further stated, “While the CSU is not required to reinstitute furloughs, we will continue efforts to cooperate with the state’s effort to minimize the impact on the state general fund. Our employee furloughs ended June 30 and were part of an overall plan to address the massive budget cuts of the past two years. We do not plan to renegotiate furloughs with our employee labor unions, but as requested by the Executive Order, will work to pay CSU employee compensation with alternative sources other than state general fund.” The Chancellor’s message in its entirety can be accessed here. Q: I read a newspaper article which reported that in the event of a state budget impasse, the wages of state employees, including the California State University, may be temporarily reduced to minimum wage until the budget is approved. Is this true? (Updated July 2): Cha
