Is it a law that deployed people be paid by their current employer while gone?

Absolutely not. some large employers, as a matter of policy may pay you some or all of your salary for some period of time.\n\nMost civilian employers support their servicemembers by holding positions for them, while some even maintain insurance benefits. The better the relationship these deployed citizen-Soldiers maintain with their employer, the better their reintegration is likely to be upon returning to their civilian jobs.\n\nthe only legal requirement is tha they not discriminate under the guidelines of the Uniformed Services Employment and Re-employment Rights Act. This act provides strict guidance for both servicemembers and employers. Some employers choose to go above and beyond what the act requires.

by law they are required to give you the money for the vacation time they took away from you. Don't take this sitting down!!

Well a few things can happen. Alot of it actually depends on the military unit they went AWOL from. First off, as soon as we change thier duty status to AWOL, we hold all pay and allowances... we inventory all property they leave behind within 24 hours. The Army has a group of military police called "AWOL Apprehension" that are informed and a notice goes thru NCIC to all law enforcement agency's. After 10 days we send thier parents a letter explaining that they are AWOL and explaining duty and honor. At the 31 day mark, we begin processing the paperwork to drop them from the military rolls and seperate them from the Army for desertion. They are given a seperation code on thier official records and DD214 that codes them as a dessertor.  With that code, it is difficult for them to apply to any college, they will be turned down for all state and federal jobs and they cannot recieve alot of different loans... to include alot of consumer loans.  Life at that point kinda sucks for them... and usually so does thier pay.  McDonalds and Burger King have even started denying them employment. If you can't get a job at Burger King... well that rests on it's own merits....lol.

It depends on the state and the union contract. The answer is most likely yes because he did not sign anything new saying that he was entitled to the extra money. Sometimes the company values the employee, so they will let you keep the extra money, but I do not believe they have any obligation to let you keep that extra money. \n\nThe flip side is if they have been paying him weekly for five weeks and just figured it out, you can argue that you had a reliance on the new paycheck. Once you is a mistake twice maybe, but five weeks is different. Depends all on how often you get a paycheck too.

You have to have worked for 6 months and have been laid off. If you quit, you won't get it. If you where fired , they can dispute it.

I dont think he should have to repay it.  I lost my twin brother in Iraq in July.  I didnt know you could get out of military because of it though.  I thought you could only do it in peace time?  I know this is supposed to be an answer and not a question but if you know more could you email me.  Im not in Iraq but I am serving in Korea.  I dont know if I want out but sometimes I feel like I should but would like to know how if I decide to.

Usually not.  Despite popular belief, getting pregnant no longer gets you out of the service.  After 60 days maternity leave after birth, you are back on the job.  And if you are overseas, you get to come home for the birth, and then sent back to fulfill your time on deployment.  This was done to prevent female getting pregnant on purpose to get out of hard duty.\n\nShe signed a contract which works both ways - she can't leave and they can't fire her.  So she has to stay, and regardless of mission needs, they have to pay her to do a job, even if they have too many people.

You need to check the company policy. Most companies have provisions to avoid paying vacation pay if an employee is terminated. You may not be able to collect your vacation pay.

This does vary from state to state but in Cal it is solely on Base pay only.  There has been legislation in the past that was trying to change this but then it got put to the side and a new administration came in.  Sorry, I know this is not the answer you were looking for.

No, the company does not have to pay you. Again with the first answerer, you should take a vacatoin before quitting so then you would technically not lose the time.

I work in outbound assignments (where you get your orders) and we don't put anything on them about pets.\n\nThe military is not going to pay for your pets to be transported to an overseas location. Everything that goes on the orders - i.e TDY en-route, dependents - will be paid by the military.\n\nI would look up different sites about traveling overseas with pets and see what the requirements are. \nThey are going to need vaccinations, and they will need to be quarantined for a certain amount of time.

What do you mean by ex-military student?\n\nI you mean you left school (college, military high school, private military school) then no.\n\nIf you left the US military as in discharged....99% think /not.  Kicked out...no.\n\nUnemployment benefits involve payments of your former civilian employer into the state unemployment fund (by law) and then your being provided those benefits based on a determination of eligibility.

Federal labor laws do not require employers to reimburse ex-employees for vacation time they earn before quitting or being fired.  However, some states have such requirements.  Also, your employment contract may address this issue as well. I would do two things:\n1. Contact your state's employment division and find out if your state requires your employer to pay accrued vacation at the time of separation.\n2. Review your employment contract and company policies regarding this issue.  First, make sure they are following your state's laws, and second, make sure they follow their own policies/agreements.

You need to think about why the companys not going to pay for it. More then likely its because your chances of survival there are VERY slim. If a company requires you to have a physical then that Co HAS to pay for it. I have a friend who went to work for Halaberton in iraq, He never came home. Think about it
