Military Leave for Active Duty

For MCCCD employees, a military leave for active duty will be treated as an Absence for Personal Reasons. Employees are due the benefits as designated in their respective policies. Employees on a Military Leave will be paid the difference between their base salary with Maricopa and the total monetary compensation they are receiving from the Military. The amount received will not exceed 100 percent of the employee's regular wages. One (1) copy of the employee's military orders must be presented to the Compensation Department.

Under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Act (USERRA), an employer must hold an employee's job for up to five (5) years when an employee is called to active duty (the leave can be intermittent). The employee must give notice upon discharge from active duty to the Compensation Department.
