Military Leave
This policy applies to all regular, full-time salaried and designated hourly non-union
employees of all domestic businesses and the corporate office of Johnson Controls, Inc.
Members of a United States Armed Forces Reserve Unit or the National Guard are
granted military leave for the period required to perform active duty for training or
inactive duty training. Employees who are called for a Reserve or National Guard
emergency will be granted an unpaid leave of absence in compliance with applicable
state and federal law. Employees will be paid for the pay loss between military pay and
their normal salary for up to two weeks of Reserve or National Guard duty.
Employees called to active duty in the Armed Forces will be placed on an extended
unpaid leave in accordance with state and federal law and upon return will be reinstated
to their former position or a position of like seniority, status or pay. Employees called to
active duty in the Armed Forces should notify the Employee Relations department.
Differential between military pay and allowances and regular salary (including any
applicable shift premium) will be paid for up to two weeks of absence per year.
Base salary (including any applicable shift differential) will be paid during the period of
absence. Immediately upon returning to work, the employee is to present a copy of the
military pay voucher so a proper deduction can be made from the next paycheck.
Included in the deduction will be all base pay and all allowances (except those which
are reimbursement for actual costs incurred, such as travel allowance) for each workday
of absence.
