Whether
they’re
providing
employment
law
guidance
or
casting
their
own
ballot,
lawyers
will
be
coming
across
rules
for
Election
Day
leave
in
the
coming
week.
As
noted
by
CNN
and
this
tracker
from
Fisher
Phillips,
there
is
no
federal
law
mandating
employees
be
given
time
off
to
vote,
but
28
states
and
the
District
of
Columbia
do
have
some
form
of
this
regulation.
North
Dakota
also
has
a
nonbinding
law
encouraging
employers
to
provide
time
off.
These
laws
differ
on
many
requirements
—
notifying
employers
of
plans
to
vote
or
compensation
for
time
spent
voting,
for
example.
