Reservists’ Reemployment Rights Enforced
Your Job is Guaranteed!
Several government agencies are working together to aggressively defend the reemployment rights of reserve-component service members.
Under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, reserve and National Guard troops cannot lose their jobs or their benefits due to military service. In other words, reservists and Guardsmen who are deployed are guaranteed their previous civilian jobs or similar jobs with the same level of benefits when they return…………..
Employers who fail to comply are in violation of federal law and can be sued by the U.S. government.
In most cases, a phone call to an ESGR representative will solve a reserve-component service member’s problem. The ESGR representative will meet with employers to explain the requirements mandated by USERRA.
