An employee selected for jury duty or called as a witness for a trial or deposition is eligible to receive full compensation for up to 3 days. Except where applicable law requires otherwise, additional time off for jury duty beyond the first 3 working days will be unpaid (unless the employee chooses to apply available accrued Paid Time Off). Any absence for jury duty, paid or unpaid, will be considered excused, and during any unpaid period of such leave, the employee will be treated in the same manner as any other employee on unpaid leave.
Employees are required to promptly advise their supervisor or manager of a summons for jury service. The supervisor should be provided with documentation that shows the dates of service and other pertinent information in order to determine appropriate scheduling adjustments. Jury leave should be requested through the payroll system, and a summons or certification will be required documentation for upload. An employee released from jury service without serving on a jury should return to work for their next scheduled workday.
