Depends on the state. In my home state, Victoria, if the casual is working
consistent and regular hours they are not considered as "casual" with regards
to Jury Duty.

We do have "casuals" which just work regular hours.  So a casual that may work
a few hours here and there, variably would be "casual", but someone who is
constently getting 38 hours a week would I suppose still have to be paid.
