There are two processes to ensure that your staff are paid correctly when on jury service and that for teaching staff you are reimbursed any cover incurred.
Paying your member of staff
1. When a member of staff is requested to do Jury Service they will receive from the Courts a Certificate of Loss of Earnings or Benefit form.
2. This must be forwarded directly to Employee Services who will complete the form, copy it and send the original back to the member of staff who is required to take this to the Court on the first day of Jury Service.
3. Selima will be sent a copy of the loss of earnings form by Employee Services.
4. From the information given on the Staff Absence Report, Selima will deduct the number of days multiplied by the rate quoted on the form.
5. When the Jury service is completed the member of staff will be issued with confirmation of the amount received which must be sent to Selima.
Any differences will be adjusted upon receipt of the form.
Reimbursement for cover (teachers only)
Timesheets need to be sent to Schools Finance who code the timesheet.
The timesheet needs to be authorised by the Headteacher to state that the supply teacher did actually work and the cover was for Jury service.
Schools Finance will reimburse the school
