HB 1883 -- Employee Job Protection

Sponsor:  Nance

This bill prohibits public and private employers from terminating
an employee for becoming a member of the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) or for being absent from or late to work
due to his or her volunteer emergency service.  If an employee is
absent from or late to work due to his or her service as a member
of FEMA, the employee may lose pay and may be required to provide
a written verification from his or her supervisor as to the time
and date of the emergency.  The member must make a reasonable
effort to notify his or her employer that he or she may be absent
from or late to work due to an emergency.
