What happens when I return to work from a leave of absence due to active duty?

When you return from a military leave of absence, you will be compensated at the rate of pay you would have received had you continued working during the period of leave. All time spent on a military leave of absence will be counted with previous university experience in calculating seniority and compensation.

If you become physically or mentally unqualified to perform the duties of your former position, you shall be offered employment in a position for which you are qualified.

Use the table below to find out how and when to return to work, based on your type and length of military leave:

Annual training session or emergency mobilization (1-30 days) Emergency mobilizations (31-180 days) Emergency mobilizations (181+ days)

Return to work the first regularly scheduled work day that would fall eight (8) hours after the person returns home.

An application for re-employment must be submitted no later than 14 days after completion of service.

 

An application for re-employment must be submitted no later than 90 days after completion of service; and the employee is qualified to perform the duties of the position.
