AI Summary
This bill, the FEMA Intermittent Personnel Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 2022, aims to provide certain employment rights to reservists of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Specifically, the bill extends the protections, rights, benefits, and obligations under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) to FEMA intermittent personnel who are appointed to perform service or train for such service under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. This includes allowing FEMA to determine that giving notice of absence from a position of employment is precluded by "military necessity" without judicial review. Additionally, the bill modifies the exception for members of the uniformed services to provide notice to employers to obtain certain employment and reemployment rights, granting this authority to the FEMA Administrator and the Secretary of Health and Human Services for specific types of FEMA personnel.
