Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

Job-protected leave for Civil Air Patrol volunteers

Nevada workers who volunteer with the Nevada Wing of the Civil Air Patrol get job-protected leave. You can take up to 10 workdays each federal fiscal year for training. You can take up to 30 workdays each federal fiscal year to respond to emergency missions. Your position, seniority, accrued leave, and benefits stay intact. An emergency mission includes search and rescue and disaster response. If an employer violates these rights, you can sue for lost wages, benefits, and attorney’s fees.

Disclose Civil Air Patrol membership to employers

If you are an employee or job applicant and plan to join a Civil Air Patrol unit, you must tell your employer or prospective employer. If the employer will not allow participation during normal work hours, they must tell you as soon as possible. This notice rule does not change your Civil Air Patrol leave rights under the law.

Civil Air Patrol leave pay and paperwork

Your employer may treat Civil Air Patrol leave as unpaid. They cannot make you use other paid leave first. They may choose to pay you. To use the leave, you must give certification from the U.S. Air Force, the Governor, or a Nevada local government, and a Civil Air Patrol verification of the emergency need.
