Additionally, government officials and government employees are not allowed to serve as poll workers. Exceptions exist for district judges, notaries public, and members of the Pennsylvania National Guard. Likewise, you are generally not allowed to serve if your name appears on the ballot.

Pollworkers generally work for the entire day on election day, from before the time the polls open at 6:00 am, until after the polls close at 8:00 pm (usually done by 9:00 pm, but it may vary).
