Does your employer offer "jury hours" as in you still get paid if you get called for jury duty?

Posted by Cuzzin Todd (aka cuzzintodd) Mar 20 '18, 14:09

I have jury duty next week and personally I'm hoping I miss the whole week from work. Don't know why jury duty gets such a bad rap.

Of course, if I wasn't still getting paid, I might feel differently.

Yes, but I still had to report to work any day the jury was dismissed before then close of business. -- nm - Covington Mar 20, 15:45

I think our office jury policy is "get out of it". - crash davis Mar 20, 14:15 4

I don't know. In 20+ years living here, I was called to jury duty *once* in like 1995. - JaxSean Mar 20, 14:15 1
