An employee can take the voting time off when he does not get enough time to vote during non-work hours because he is working a very long shift on election day.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
\u00a0If the employee lives at a distant place from work and can not get time to vote in the election at the proper polling place in time, he will be eligible for voting leave.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
\u00a0If the employee has to work out of town on election day and can not attend the election, he can ask for leave.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n

\n
The employers are entitled to release a notice for the employees informing them about their right to take paid leave to vote in statewide elections.\u2060<\/span><\/li>\n
More importantly, the notice should be posted at least 10 days before the statewide election.<\/span><\/li>\n
The employer should post the notice in a place where all the employees can see it.<\/span><\/li>\n
The notice should be written evidently without any confusion.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
The employers should mail a copy of this notice to the remote employees to make sure that they get to know about their deserved rights.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
The employees can take as much time off as they need but the employers are entitled to give payment for only 2 hours of leave.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
