Jury Duty / Court Appearance

The company supports employees in their civic duty to serve on a jury. Employees must present any summons to jury duty to their supervisor as soon as possible after receiving the notice to allow advance planning for an employee’s absence.

Nonexempt employees will not be compensated by the company for jury duty. Exempt employees will receive full salary for any week in which any work is performed while the exempt employee is on jury duty. All employees may use any accrued time off if required to serve on a jury.

If an employee is released from jury duty after 4 hours or less of service, the employee must report to work for the remainder of that workday.

Time for appearance in court for personal business will be the individual employee’s responsibility. Normally, personal days or vacation days will be used for this purpose.
