BismilLah.
It's important we understand as Muslims that Jumu‘ah prayer is obligatory for the able-bodied Muslim man, and that staying away from it is a grave sin. What is required is to be very keen to attend this prayer regularly, for it is a weekly prayer on a day that is like an Eid for the Muslims, the greatest and best of the days of the week. So it is not permissible to be heedless or negligent about it.
Almost all Scholars who qualify for Issuing Fatwas has said that:
Jumu‘ah prayer is an individual obligation (fard ‘ayn); it is not permissible to miss it because of working hour or study, and the like. ALLAH, may He be glorified, says
“And whoever fears ALLAH - He will make for him a way out And will provide for him from where he does not expect”
[at-Talaaq 65:2-3]. From this verse it's clear that we must make our priority to please Allah first before anything else. We cannot choose work and studies in place of missing JUMUĀH Salaat. ALLAH is the only source of halaal sustenance and if we want to meet ALLAH then we must set our priority right in regards to our acts of worship. Truth is mostly bitter but if we've got two choices to obey ALLAH or over HIS creation. It's an individual choice to strive harder to obey ALLAH regardless of the cost.

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. AMIN
