Veterans Gain Special Job Rights Under War Manpower Plan
Veterans of World War II and their families receive reemployment protections for sixty days after starting civilian work. The War Manpower Commission explains the period begins when the veteran takes his first job, allowing referral to any employment including non essential work. Reemployment rights apply even if the veteran is rehired after being assigned to another job, with certain ceiling rules for non veterans. The aim is to place veterans in positions matching their skills to aid the war effort.
