Civilian employees at several federal agencies miss their first full paycheck
"The Executive Office of the President and a few other agencies' civilian employees also missed Friday paychecks, according to a Bipartisan Policy Institute report. What's next: On Tuesday, about 686,000 civilian employees at most other agencies will miss an entire paycheck. On Thursday, 37,000 employees at the Departments of State and Education will miss entire checks. Context: Civilian federal employees received partial paychecks on Oct. 10, 14 or 16 that were missing three days' worth of pay."
"By the numbers: If the shutdown lasts through the end of October, nearly 1.8 million paychecks will be withheld from civilian employees of federal agencies, per the Bipartisan Policy Institute. If it lasts through Dec. 1, roughly 4.5 million paychecks will be withheld from civilian employees of federal agencies. Agency contingency plans as of Friday show about 670,000 workers are currently furloughed. An additional 730,000 are working without pay."
