§127A-202. Rights

Upon release from State duty, the employee shall make written application to the employee's previous employer for reemployment within five days of the employee's release from duty or from hospitalization continuing after release. If the employee is still qualified for the employee's previous employment, the employee shall be restored to his previous position or to a position of like seniority, status and salary, unless the employer's circumstances now make the restoration unreasonable. If the employee is no longer qualified for the employee's previous employment, the employee shall be placed in another position, for which the employee is qualified, and which will give the employee appropriate seniority, status and salary, unless the employer's circumstances now make the placement unreasonable.
