IV: Responsibilities
Human Resources is responsible for creating, enforcing and updating this policy, as well as educating County department heads, managers and supervisors regarding this policy. Each department head is responsible to insure that his/her Department is in compliance with the County of Sonoma’s Military Leave Policy.
A notification of employee rights under USERRA shall be posted along with other employment-related posters in each building as required. Regardless of notification, an employee is still required to exercise due diligence in ascertaining his or her rights, and to seek reemployment within the time limits provided for restoration after uniformed service, or as soon as he or she is able after a compensable injury (5 CFR §353.104).
V: Procedure
Employees should contact their Departmental Human Resources Liaison or payroll representative for specific procedural information or if they have questions.
