Appendix B

USERRA (Uniformed Services Employment & Reemployment Rights Act)

 

YOUR RIGHTS UNDER USERRA

THE UNIFORMED SERVICES EMPLOYMENT

AND REEMPLOYMENT RIGHTS ACT

USERRA protects the job rights of individuals who voluntarily or involuntarily leave employment positions to undertake

military service or certain types of service in the National Disaster Medical System. USERRA also prohibits employers from

discriminating against past and present members of the uniformed services, and applicants to the uniformed services.

REEMPLOYMENT RIGHTS

You have the right to be reemployed in your civilian job if you leave that

job to perform service in the uniformed service and:

 you ensure that your employer receives advance written or verbal

notice of your service;

 you have five years or less of cumulative service in the uniformed

services while with that particular employer;

 you return to work or apply for reemployment in a timely manner

after conclusion of service; and

 you have not been separated from service with a disqualifying

discharge or under other than honorable conditions.

If you are eligible to be reemployed, you must be restored to the job

and benefits you would have attained if you had not been absent due to

military service or, in some cases, a comparable job.

RIGHT TO BE FREE FROM DISCRIMINATION AND RETALIATION

If you:

 are a past or present member of the uniformed service;

 have applied for membership in the uniformed service; or

 are obligated to serve in the uniformed service;

then an employer may not deny you:

 initial employment;

 reemployment;

 retention in employment;

 promotion; or

 any benefit of employment

because of this status.

In addition, an employer may not retaliate against anyone assisting in

the enforcement of USERRA rights, including testifying or making a

statement in connection with a proceeding under USERRA, even if that

person has no service connection.

HEALTH INSURANCE PROTECTION

 If you leave your job to perform military service, you have the right

to elect to continue your existing employer-based health plan

coverage for you and your dependents for up to 24 months while in

the military.

 Even if you don’t elect to continue coverage during your military

service, you have the right to be reinstated in your employer’s

health plan when you are reemployed, generally without any waiting

periods or exclusions (e.g., pre-existing condition exclusions) except

for service-connected illnesses or injuries.

ENFORCEMENT



The U.S. Department of Labor, Veterans Employment and Training

Service (VETS) is authorized to investigate and resolve complaints of

USERRA violations.



For assistance in filing a complaint, or for any other information on

USERRA, contact VETS at 1-866-4-USA-DOL or visit its website at

https://www.dol.gov/agencies/vets/. An interactive online USERRA

Advisor can be viewed at https://webapps.dol.gov/elaws/vets/userra



If you file a complaint with VETS and VETS is unable to resolve it, you

may request that your case be referred to the Department of Justice or

the Office of Special Counsel, as applicable, for representation.



You may also bypass the VETS process and bring a civil action against

an employer for violations of USERRA.

The rights listed here may vary depending on the circumstances. The text of this notice was prepared by VETS, and may be viewed on the internet at this

address: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/vets/programs/userra/poster Federal law requires employers to notify employees of their rights under USERRA, and

employers may meet this requirement by displaying the text of this notice where they customarily place notices for employees.
