Tribune Publishing, a media company that includes newspapers like Chicago Tribune, New York Daily News, The Baltimore Sun, and South Florida Sun Sentinel, told employees today in a companywide email that temporary and broad furloughs will be implemented.
In particular, non-unionized employees who earn an annual base salary between $40,000 and $67,000 will be temporarily furloughed for three weeks. Staffers will take that unpaid time off in one-week increments, between May and July.
