***********************************************************************************

In accordance with the Uniformed Services Employment and Re-Employment Right Act
(USERRA), Jack & Jill Children’s Center will not discriminate against any person in any
employment action based upon military service, application for military service and/or other
military obligation.

Team members requiring leave under this policy must notify Jack & Jill Children’s Center
immediately upon receiving military orders that a Military Service Leave will be needed.

Team members returning from Military Service Leave must report for duty within five days of
discharge.

Team member returning from Military Service Leave will be returned to their former or
comparable position. The returning team member’s status, pay and benefits will be the same
upon return as they would have been had the team member not been called to active duty.

If qualifications for the former position have changed during the Military Service Leave, Jack &
Jill Children’s Center will make a reasonable attempt at re-training the returning team member
so they may become qualified for the position.

Under Military Service Leave, a team member may at the team member’s discretion, use any/all
available paid leave time in conjunction with the Military Service Leave.

If a team member is dishonorably discharged from military service, they are no longer
protected under USERRA and any and all rights guaranteed there under are forfeited.
