Absence for Service in Military Forces

The U.S. military is increasingly dependent members of the reserve and other soldier's time to complete its various missions. While these troops are proud to serve wherever the call, there is no doubt that these long trips away from active duty regular employment can be a burden for both the soldier and his family. There are a number of protections for members of the Reserve and National Guard are on active duty (Downey, 2004).

The right to be reemployed

A major concern among those called to active military duty is to return their previous jobs once they return to civilian life. An employee who might be called to active military service can be considered absent without pay. Federal law provides that a person can be entitled to be reemployed in the job had it not been called to serve in the military (more on this important federal law below).

A service member who returns to his former employment is entitled to re-enroll in the health insurance plan of the employer. You cannot impose a waiting period or exclusion. The health insurance plan provided by the employer, however, has no obligation to provide coverage for injuries or conditions caused or aggravated by service in the armed forces (such injuries are covered with military health insurance).

This essay significantly strengthens penalties for unauthorized absence of military personnel. It may seem surprising to have to reaffirm or strengthen existing sanctions in a profession where the availability anytime and anywhere is a fundamental rule. Directive reveals the depths of malfunctions and failures that the reduction of military forces now makes it unbearable for the armies (Broadhurst, 2010).

Strengthening of controls and penalties shows that rearrangement of the internal management of the military is necessary. Also, it is desirable that this directive is accompanied by a strengthening of skills and requirements for the supervisory staff in ...
