Many non-essential government employees are temporarily furloughed during a shutdown, while essential personnel whose funding is not dependent on annual appropriations bills – such as military service members, law enforcement agents, and air traffic controllers – continue to work.

The essential workers won’t get paid though. Not until after the shutdown would end, then they get back pay.
