Several Richmond Public Schools employees say the're confused about a payroll mistake that has left them unsure if they are owed money and when they will receive it. The issue stems from a collective bargaining agreement signed in the summer that entitles certain employees to a stipend for extra duties. A recent payroll error resulted in an overpayment to all office associates, leading to deductions in subsequent paychecks. The mistake has impacted employees who have been working extra duties all year, causing financial strain.
WRIC reports that the Richmond Education Association President Anne Forrester expressed concern about the impact on employees who rely on multiple jobs to make ends meet.
