Veterans' Re-employment Rights

It is the policy of the University to reinstate all veterans who, upon returning from military service, meet the reinstatement requirements of the Veterans' Reemployment Statute.

All individuals whose civilian employment is voluntarily or involuntarily interrupted by active military duty, by reserve training activities, or by reporting for examination are protected by the Veterans' Reemployment Statute. The servicemember is entitled to return to a job of similar seniority, status and pay. Veterans returning from military service should be directed to University Human Resources, where their rights under the Veterans' Reemployment Statute can be determined.
