Q. Must my employer pay me while I'm on jury service?   A. No. An employer is NOT required by law to pay employees who are on jury service but many employers do. You should check with your company's human resources department before serving to see if your company pays your salary for days you are a juror. If you DO receive your salary while on jury service, you should ask what your employer requires as proof that you served as a juror.     Message from the Chief Judge, Hon. Timothy C.
