Arizona Republic: ASU workers on layoff list may get hit by furloughs, too
Some Arizona State University employees who are being laid off will face a double whammy under the university’s new furlough policy.
In response to the state’s ongoing budget crisis, the university was forced to eliminate up to 550 positions through attrition and layoffs, a number that could grow by an additional 1,000 jobs. The process of issuing 90-day layoff notifications began several months ago.
Last week, ASU President Michael Crow announced plans to require each of the university’s 12,000 employees to take up to 15 unpaid days off by June 30, which would save $24 million.
