Why are employees paid on non-state funds required to take furlough time?
The University of Arizona is emphasizing consistency as one of the chief principles in implementing the furlough program. A grant or auxiliary funded employee does not become ineligible for certain benefits because of funding source (i.e. , access to health insurance or pay out of vacation balance at time of termination, etc. ) and likewise, should not automatically be exempted from other employee requirements, policies or programs.
