In a message to the campus on Thursday, June 11, Chancellor Philip DiStefano announced that baby直播app and staff who earn an annualized salary of more than $60,000 will see a temporary 5% pay reduction. As part of this measure, university staff and 12-month baby直播app (researchers and library baby直播app) will receive an additional 12 days of leave to use by June 30, 2021. The temporary pay reduction, meant to preserve jobs during a challenging financial time, will be in effect from July 1, 2020, to June 30, 2021. Additional details about the temporary pay reduction, the additional leave, and the employees exempt from this measure are available on the Human Resources COVID-19 Furlough Guidance webpage with detailed FAQs specific to this announcement.

As discussed publicly since April, CU Boulder is facing a funding shortfall. Estimates on the funding shortfall show a potential $121 million to $651 million deficit for next fiscal year. By taking these measures, the university can prevent imminent layoffs and other budget cuts that would harm the university鈥檚 ability to achieve its mission. Current estimates show that the temporary pay reductions will save the university approximately $15.1 million.听

University staff and 12-month baby直播app will have 12 days of leave to utilize as part of this measure, with part-time employees having the number of leave days pro-rated. Impacted employees will receive additional information via email as a follow up to the chancellor鈥檚 announcement.

鈥淲e are facing one of the most challenging times in university history, and we do not take lightly the financial decisions we鈥檝e made over the last few months,鈥 DiStefano said. 鈥淲e know that livelihoods are in the balance and are trying to be as creative as possible to address financial shortfalls."听
