Instead of the one-time budget reduction for employees not in the furlough program, can a department use salary savings from currently vacant positions?
For the one-time budget cut associated with represented staff, departments may return funds from any source of central funds. If departments need to implement temporary layoffs in order to meet their budget reductions, departments are encouraged to consider equitable treatment of employees in their planning.
