Gov. Quinn slices staff pay after flap over raises | Crain's Chicago Business

 

Quinn will require his staff, state managers and policymakers to take 24 unpaid days off this year, up from 12 days last year, he said. Quinn also plans to take the 24 unpaid days.

"It is something we must do and the governor must set the pace," he said in Chicago. "This budget year we're going to have constant review."

…days off will translate into a 9.2 percent salary….he's given 43 salary increases averaging 11.4 percent to 35 staffers in his office the past 15 months. Many of the increases went to people with new jobs or more duties, but about one-third were simply described as salary adjustments.
