Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the military law, in relation to reemployment of members of an organized militia called to military service
Purpose or general idea of bill
This legislation would allow job protection for both New York state public and private employees who live outside of New York and are deployed as a member of their State's organized militia.
Summary of specific provisions
Section 1 amends section 317 of the military law to allow for job protection for private employees who live outside of New York and are deployed as a member of their State's organized militia.
Section 2 amends section 243 of the military law to allow for job protection for those public employees who live outside of New York and are deployed as a member of their State's organized militia.
Section 3 is the effective date.
Justification
Current New York State law allows for job protection for New York state residents employed within New York when they are called to active duty by the Governor. This legislation seeks to ensure job protection for those individuals employed in New York but who reside out of State and serve out of State. New York law should not discriminate against employees based on whether or not they live in or out of New York. All individuals who work inside this State and serve as a member of a State's National guard are deserving of job protection when called to active duty. This legislation seeks to ensure that these protections exist.
