1. The Perfect Fit
The 9-to-5 world can be hard for veterans to negotiate. But finding the right job can make all the difference in helping injured and traumatized soldiers feel complete.

2. Don’t Make Them Fight a War in the Workplace
When disabled veterans return home and try to resume their jobs, employers should be their allies, not their enemies.

3. Employers’ Legal Obligations to Employees in the Military
Hiring citizen soldiers has great benefits, but there are also strict laws governing their treatment that every employer needs to know.

4. Gearing Up for Active Duty
On the eve of what might be the largest reserve deployment in U.S. history, companies vary widely in how they treat reservists. Some do the bare minimum, or pressure employees to leave the reserves. Others support reservists, and reap loyalty and recruiting benefits.

5. USERRA Final Regulations Published
The regulations apply to all private employers and state and local governments.

6. USERRA Verdict Affirmed for Reservist
ployers are advised to carefully evaluate employee rights under USERRA.
