YES, if you are a full time employee and have been employed for 6 months. There are some other fine print but basically, the employee shall be entitled to the employee's usual compensation for time received from such employment (including travel and jury duty time). The employer has the discretion to deduct the amount of the fee or compensation the employee receives for serving as a juror from the court. No employer shall be required to compensate an employee for more time than was actually spent serving and traveling to and from jury duty.

Please post another question mentioning which state you're in...it makes a big difference. Under federal law, an employer does not have to pay you for jury duty. (However, some states including Colorado do require payment.) However, the employer cannot fire you or otherwise discipline you for the time off for jury duty. (Be aware, however, that if you're only on jury duty part of the day, you need to report to work the other part of the day.)
