KY - Kentucky Human Resource Labor Laws

Below is a list of employment laws we monitor and provide for Kentucky.

Example law for this state:

Military Leave

An active member of the United States Army Reserve, the United States Naval Reserve, the United States Air Force Reserve, the United States Marine Corps Reserve, the United States Coast Guard Reserve, the United States Public Health Service Reserve, or the Kentucky National Guard, required to serve under order or training duty shall be without loss of the regular compensation for a period not to exceed the number of working days specified in KRS 61.394, per federal fiscal year (October-September), provided your military orders require your absence from your state job. Any additional military leave time must be charged to your accumulated annual or compensatory leave balance or be charged as leave without pay. Your appointing authority may require you to present a copy of the military orders requiring your absence from work before granting military leave. Any state employee who enters active military duty must be granted leave of absence without pay for the period of that duty up to six years. Although your agency and the Secretary of Personnel must grant such leave, you must request it in order to avoid being dismissed for abandonment of your job without obtaining official leave. When you return from active duty, your employer must restore you to a job of like seniority, status, and pay under KRS Chapter 61. An employee restored from military leave is treated as though he or she was in continuous service.
