When an employee is ordered to active duty, he or she
must notify his or her immediate supervisor and the Commissioner of the respective
department. When the employee receives written orders, a copy of those orders,
a copy of the current year's Military Pay Chart and a copy of his or
her latest Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) must be submitted to the Department
of Personnel (Personnel). Personnel shall review the orders and determine
which (if any) benefits the employee may be entitled to in the Brookhaven
Employee Servicemember Benefits and Compensation Protection Act. This benefit
analysis shall include: 1) comparing the employee's annual base salary
to the employee's military base pay, 2) reviewing the employee's
latest Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), 3) reviewing the employee's
medical benefits plan (if any), and 4) determining whether or not the employee
has any family members who are eligible to receive benefits under any existing
employee benefit fund.
