Credit where credit is due

[qwertyMike]

Whenever military reservists are called to active duty, the law states
that companies are required to keep their jobs available — period.
Since most people in the private sector are making more money than
they do in the service, this can result in a pay cut. In addition,
there
are no legal requirements for companies to maintain other employee
benefits such as medical insurance or bonus programs.

So what is Sears doing about it? Plenty.

Sears has decided — voluntarily — to pay the difference in salaries
and
maintain company benefits for all their called-up reservist employees
for
up to two years.
