Calculating the Cost of a Furlough Day
1. Divide your annual salary by 186 days to get
a daily rate
2. The daily rate is what it will cost you for each
furlough day
3. Take the total cost of furlough days for that
year and divide by 10 = monthly reduction
• An employee making $62,000.00 =
$333.33 daily rate / cost of furlough day =
$33.33 deducted from pay check for each day
