Depending on how Oregon unemployment is we may be able to do furloughed year round, meaning reducing work week to 1/3.

Is that furlough or workshare?

Furlough period is planned for multiple months, but depends on how oregon UE works with reduced hours. Basically my employer is trying to see what the best case scenario for the employees are, as we ALL will be back to work in November/December. I work within the tax world so we're a somewhat seasonal office, but we do other services to keep busy year round. Also I may be a little unfamiliar with the term workshare.

So was I until I read ab it today in the WSJ. Workshare means, basically, that your employer cuts employee weekly hours and applies to the state unemployment agency for the state to pay the difference between the employee's actual hours and the normal 40 hour workweek.

Thanks, I’ll take a look into that. I was wondering what the term was and how that goes.
