well in the usa they have full time, part time and seasonal classifications,
and there are labor laws that may be different for each one.

what you call causual exists but only between the employer and employee.
i do think that people who do jury duty should not lose money.  i wouldnt
trust a person who was doing stuch a thing under duress.

it's too bad but we don't have laws for that other than minimum pay.
in my state it's minimum 16/day but some cities pay more.
