Re: Employees participating as research Bruce Steinert, PhD - Urology Research 01 Feb 1996 07:40 EST

We also require employees wishing to participate as study subjects to do
so on their own time. In response to Barbara's comment, we also do not
consider this double-dipping. I believe that term would refer to employees
participating on 'company' time. Similarly, our employees receive their
usual pay for jury duty. The local per diem for jurors is $15. Our policy
requires an employee taking 'jury time' to turn the per diem over to the
hospital.

Additionally, we do not allow employees to participate in research
conducted by their supervisor. This policy based on the potential for
conflict of interest or coercion.

Hope that helps
