Protection Of Jobs Of Service People Broadened By Law
Amendments to the Universal Military Training and Service Act broaden job protection for those leaving employment to enter armed service. Rejected draftees and those who complete brief reserve tours since 1951 gain reemployment rights if they apply within 30 days. Enlistees for up to four years since 1948 are covered, retroactive to the 1948 Selective Service Act. Inquiries should go to the Boston Field Office. Soviet law permits prosecution of inefficient workers and possible loss of benefits or job.
