Employers
No employer may discharge or demote any employee
because the employee has been called for jury service, or is serving as a
grand juror or petit juror (N.C.G.S. § 9-32). Jurors should notify their
employers immediately of their jury service. If proof of jury service is
need for an employer, statements will be provided at the end of the day
or at the end of the trial, if selected to serve on a trial.
Some employers pay employees while serving on jury duty, and some do not.
You should inquire of your employer about their policy. The law does not
require employers to pay employees in full while serving.
