10.1 Leave of absence will normally be granted to employees called for jury duty. If you receive a notice of jury duty you must notify your manager as soon as possible in order that arrangements may be made to cover your position.
10.2 An employee on jury duty will be expected to work as much of his/her regularly scheduled work week as the jury duty schedule permits, to the extent that combined time on jury duty and at work does not exceed the number of hours he/she is normally scheduled to work during a normal working week (unless additional time is absolutely necessary and mutually agreed upon by the employee and Company).
10.3 If you hold a position crucial to the operation of the Company, or in the event that your absence from work over a long period of time could cause hardship to the Company, the Company may petition the jury selection committee to excuse you from jury duty. Also, you may personally petition to be excused from jury duty if jury duty would cause hardship to your family.
10.4 An employee serving on jury duty must present the official court cheque or other documentation of remuneration to their manager so that arrangements for the payment of any difference between regular pay and jury duty compensation can be made. In no event will make-up pay exceed compensation for the number of hours the employee is normally scheduled to work during a given work week, and in any case payment will only be made to cover the period that the jury is expected to attend the court.
