What if my employer requires me to turn in a statement that verifies my attendance to jury duty?

Work Verifications/Proof of Service Reports will be provided for you at the completion of your service. We do not keep track of the actual hours you spend in court, only the number of days that you report. Your employment is protected by law while you are serving as a juror. If you have any problems with your employer in connection with your jury service, please notify the Jury Commission immediately.
