§ 564 State Military Service Rights

This law says that members of the armed forces get the same rights, privileges, and benefits as listed in sections 394 and 395 when they are on active duty for the state.

Key Takeaways

  • •Applies only to people serving in the active military of the state.
  • •Gives them all the rights mentioned in sections 394 and 395.
  • •Works the same way as if they were regular state employees.

Example

A National Guard soldier is called up to serve the state and needs unemployment benefits.

Because he is on active service, the law treats him like a regular state worker, so he can receive the unemployment benefits described in sections 394 and 395.
