Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) is the lead Defense Department office promoting cooperation and understanding between civilian employers and their National Guard and Reserve employees.〔(ESGR Web site )〕 Established in 1972, ESGR operates within the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs. ESGR develops and promotes supportive work environments for service members in the Reserve Components through outreach, recognition, and educational opportunities that increase awareness of applicable laws and resolves employer conflicts between the service members and their employers. ==Statement of Support== The Statement of Support program is the cornerstone of ESGR’s efforts to gain and maintain employer support. The program aims to develop employers into advocates for employee participation in the military. Supportive employers are critical to maintaining the strength and readiness of the nation’s Guard and Reserve units. Employers signing a statement of support pledge that: 1. To recognize, honor and enforce the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA); 2. To provide managers and supervisors with the tools they need to effectively manage those employees who serve in the Guard and Reserve; 3. Appreciate the values, leadership and unique skills service members bring to the workforce and will encourage opportunities to employ Guardsmen, Reservists, and Veterans; 4. To continually recognize and support service members and their families in peace, crisis and war. The Chairman of the Board of General Motors signed the first Statement of Support on December 13, 1972. Since then, thousands of employers—ranging from Chrysler to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma—have followed suit, as did every cabinet secretary and federal agency in 2005. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
