D)Known as the escalator principle,this requirement is designed to ensure that a returning employee is not penalized (by losing a pay raise,promotion,etc.)for the time spent on active duty,not exceeding five years.In order to accomplish this,organizations should track factors ranging from compensation to promotions that employees would have received had they not been on military leave.There are no special rights under USERRA for temporary workers or the new hires taking over the Reserve or National Guide members' jobs.Disparate treatment and adverse impact are forms of discrimination associated with Equal Employment Opportunity laws.Equal protection is a principle of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S.Constitution.
