This bill proposes updates to current statutes regarding military leave for members of the national guard and armed forces reserves. The current law prohibits employers from denying leaves of absence for active duty but removes specific references to "camps, maneuvers, formations or armory drills," replacing them with the broader term "training." Additionally, it clarifies that officers or employees on leave under competent military orders will not lose time or efficiency ratings, and it specifies that military leave will not be charged for days not scheduled for work.

Furthermore, the bill modifies the language surrounding the leave of absence for state officers and employees, ensuring that it applies to all days of active duty or training under competent orders. It also emphasizes that the time spent on military leave will not be deducted from vacation entitlements. Overall, the bill aims to modernize and clarify the provisions related to military leave, ensuring better protection for service members while maintaining their employment rights.
