Most states require employers to give time off to employees in order to punch a ballot if work hours overlap significantly with polling station hours. Some states even mandate that you get paid during that time. Check out this state-by-state breakdown to see if you qualify for a little quality time away from the office to exercise your right as a citizen. We promise to look the other way if you vote by absentee ballot and take the free time anyway. emPhoto by a href=”http://www.flickr.com/photos/hjl/61380665/”Ho John Lee/a./em/p div class=”related”a href=”http://employmentlawpost.com/theword/2008/10/15/time-off-to-vote-for-employees-a-state-by-state-survey-2/”Time Off to Vote for Employees — A State by State Survey/a [The Employment Law Post]/div br style=”clear: both;”/
