National Guard and Reserve Ombudsman Services
(Separate Website)
The ESGR Ombudsmen Services Program was established to address potential problems arising among the nation's employers regarding the phasing out of the "draft" or conscription of people into the military by the Selective Service and the establishment of the all-volunteer force. There was concern that the nation's employers, who were used to some of their employees serving in the National Guard and Reserve as an alternative to compulsory active duty service, might question the necessity of such service in a purely voluntary military system. The Ombudsmen Services Program was established in response. It provides information, counseling, and informal mediation of issues relating to compliance with the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
