Try some questions from the course

Question 1 of 3

What is wrong with the manager's message to Marcus?

 

USERRA bars discrimination and retaliation because of military service. Employees cannot be forced to choose between service and their job.

Lesson 1, Your role, teaches this. See the outline

Question 2 of 3

Which employers does USERRA cover?

 

USERRA applies to virtually all employers, regardless of size.

Lesson 2, The rules, teaches this. See the outline

Question 3 of 3

A veteran applies for a role. Which interview question is fine?

 

Ask about skills and job-related abilities. Don't ask about discharge type, injuries or disability status.

Lesson 3, Do / Don't, teaches this. See the outline
