Duke University employee or a Duke University Health System employee.
Workers' Compensation - Employees that have
an on-the-job injury may be eligible for benefits - including medical care and
income replacement - under workers' compensation.
Bereavement Leave

positions to handle matters related to a death in the family.
Jury Duty -
Duke provides paid leave to staff for jury duty service and to staff subpoenaed

Voting Time -
Staff who are registered voters and unable to vote outside of regular work hours
