According to today's Inquirer ("No lost state pay in 1-day furlough," by Martha Raeffele), state workers will be paid for the one day they were furloughed during the state budget battle between the governor and the legislature.
The July 9 furlough will be treated as a paid office closing, such as a snow day, Rendell spokesman Doug Rohanna said. Depending on their pay schedules, employees will receive the money in paychecks issued Aug. 3 or Aug. 10, said Mia DeVane, spokeswoman for the Office of Administration.
This is good news, though I think better planning and more cooperation could have prevented the problem in the first place.
