Time off to vote is available for those whose work hours exceed polling place hours. If not, employers are not required to give time off to vote. Employees in Alabama may take up to one hour, but not if the polls are open two hours before their shift and open at least one hour after their shift. The employer is not required to pay wages for the time off. Whether this time is paid varies by town.
