Current U.S. troop deployments are affecting those who serve our country and their families, as well as the businesses that support their employees' military leave. Approximately 1.8 million personnel are on active military duty, with an additional 860,000 active Reserves.
What Every Company Needs to Know About Military Leave
With increasingly longer military leaves (since 2001, the National Guard's deployment policy has shifted from a 6-month to a 24-month maximum service overseas), companies must understand their legal obligations under military leave laws, specifically the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA). Employers must be aware of what happens before, during and after their employees take military leave.
