Reemployment rights

Reemployment rights are legal protections that allow eligible employees to return to their job after taking leave, such as for illness, military service, or family leave. These rights ensure that your job or a similar position is available when you come back, and your pay and benefits are preserved. Reemployment rights vary depending on the reason for leave and applicable laws or company policies, but they aim to support employees during life events without risking job loss. It’s important to understand your specific rights under laws like FMLA or the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
