Jury/Witness Duty

Bryant University recognizes the civic duty of an employee to serve on a jury or as a court witness. If an employee is absent from work because they have been summoned to serve on a jury or has been required by subpoena to appear as a work-related witness, they should provide Human Resources with the appropriate certification from the clerk of the court. The University will pay the employee’s regular straight time pay for the period of Jury/Witness duty. 

Employees working an alternative work schedule (nights, weekends, etc.) should contact their manager and the Human Resources Department to discuss their work schedule in coordination with their jury/witness duty requirement.
