The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) protects the job rights of individuals who leave their employment to perform military service. This includes the right to be reemployed in the same or a similar position upon completing the military service. Employers are prohibited from discriminating against employees or applicants based on their military service, and they are required to make reasonable efforts to accommodate military service obligations. Therefore, Catherine's boss is violating her rights under USERRA by not guaranteeing her job upon her return from deployment.
