Carbon County issued the following announcement on April 6
The Carbon County Commissioners, in conjunction with the Courts and the Elected Row office holders, will be initiating the furlough and partial furlough of County employees due to the COVID 19 Pandemic.
The effective date of the furlough Is Monday, April 6, 2020 through April 30, 2020. A decision will be made prior to April 30th if the furloughs and partial furloughs are to remain in effect. At this time, an exact count of the total furloughs and partial furloughs is not known but we will provide that information once it is available.
Services of the County will still remain operational and will be handled by fewer staff members until this situation passes. We want everyone to know the County, the Court and Row Offices will still be functioning, just under different circumstances.
This was a difficult decision for the Commissioners, the Court and Row office holders, and was not taken lightly. This conscientious decision was made with the safety of the employees and the public foremost in mind. We ask for your patience in this trying time and know we will be back even stronger.
Please stay safe, stay home and if you must go out please, please practice social physical distancing.
