We are wanting to know if your company pays when your employees are away training for the Reserves?

Thank you kindly. - Jennifer

    Good Morning Jennifer!  Attached are some documents you should find useful.  The first attachment is a high level overview of your question.  The FMLA Rights article is a full compliance piece for you.  If you need a policy template, I attached that as well.  If you need something specific, please let me know and this should help! 

  • Ryan,

    Thank you so much.  Every company I have worked for has paid reservist and this company does not.  I mentioned it to our new President and he wanted to hear from other companies.

    If anyone would like to contribute and let me know if you pay, it would greatly impact my cause to pay these gentlmen!

    Thank you so much!
