The School recognizes that employees have a civic responsibility when called for jury duty and will not penalize any employee because he/she is required to attend court for jury service.
Full-time and part-time employees who are called for and report to jury duty will be paid their regular rate of pay for the first ten (10) days of jury duty service. Any non-travel allowance that an employee may receive in connection with serving jury duty is to be reimbursed to the School during the time period that the employee is receiving compensation from the School or as required by state or local law.
An employee must provide their supervisor and the Senior Director of Finance with written notification of the jury duty obligation as soon as possible (preferably the next business day or within 48 hours of receiving jury summons) following receipt of notice. At the end of jury duty, employees must provide certification of having served jury duty and the amount of money that was received in connection with such service, if any. Employees who have the option to serve “on call” for a jury are required to do so, but must report to work if they are not called for the day.
All non-exempt employees who report to work during any period of jury duty service will be paid for all time worked in accordance with applicable laws.
Employees must report to work when excused or dismissed from jury duty.
