I would like to learn more about the VR&E reemployment track.
Are you a Veteran?
Yes, I am. I've served my country for a long time.
In that case you're protected under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act USERRA. This means you can't be disadvantaged in your civilian career because of your service.
================
Can this help me to return to my former job?
Yes, you may be eligible for help if you re a Veteran with a service-connected disability and you meet all of the requirements.
What are the requirements?
Do you have an employment barrier or handicap?
No, I don't have a handicap.
I'm afraid you don't meet the requirements then.
================
Well, that's a bummer. But what if I did have a disability?
In that case the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment VR&E Reemployment track can help your employer accommodate your needs. Your Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor VRC can provide a full range of rehabilitation services, and can refer you directly to the Department of Labor to begin the process.
================
I see. What if I get diagnosed with a disability and I do meet that requirement?
Then we'll invite you to an orientation session at your nearest VA regional benefit office.
