Are mats required where employees stand for long time?

There is not a specific OSHA standard that addresses your question, but there is OSHA's General Duty Clause, where employers are obligated to protect workers from known hazards. There may be a case that has set precedent on this, as occupations that require standing are fairly common. The main factor is if standing for 40 hours a week is deemed a hazard. Ultimately, anti-fatigue mats can be provided for a small cost if the employee is standing in a small area, so I would recommend the employer purchase them.

Your wife was fired for doing jury duty is this legal?

It most likely was not legal. Jury duty is a compulsory duty imposed by law and it may not be interfered with by private individuals or companies. States have laws that require employers to permit their employees to fulfill jury duty requirements without retaliation. Employers cannot be forced to pay an employee for time missed from work, but they cannot take any adverse action against you for going. Same in the UK and all civilized countries, providing the employer is made aware of the duty. An individual or company with a strong case can ask for a deferral of duty.
