Guest guest Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 Sears, I assume you have all seen the reports about how Sears is treating its reservist employees who are called up? By law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up... Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years. I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement it well deserves. Pass it on.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 --This is wonderful, I hadn't heard that. Our governor,(Virginia) just passed a measure to do the same thing for state employees. I think this is so wonderful.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2003 Report Share Posted March 28, 2003 Hi Jeanne: I really don't need an excuse to shop but I'm so glad you told us about Sears. I'll be there first thing in the morning! *LOL* Roe > > > Sears, I assume you have all seen the reports about how Sears is treating its reservist employees who are called up?
