If this true, those in the bottom 1/3 might be worse off than just taking a furlough. For me, not only would I be losing 50% pay, I’d also lose 3 months furlough pay, a 90 day notice, vacation pay payout, plus the need to tell my temporary employer “oh yeah, I’ll need 7 days off per month, but I won’t know which ones until two weeks’ prior to the next month.” All to work for half-pay starting immediately? I don’t know. We’ve budgeted for a cut in pay starting mid March of next year. Not suddenly in Oct. If this is the deal, I’m not sure...
