Summary

Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1993 - Amends Federal veterans' benefits provisions to revise those relating to the employment and reemployment rights of members of the uniformed services. Expresses the sense of the Congress that the Government should be a model employer in carrying out the employment and reemployment practices enumerated in this Act. Prohibits an employer from denying employment, reemployment, retention, promotion, or any benefit of employment to a person on the basis of membership, service, or a service obligation in a uniformed service. Entitles any person absent from employment (other than temporary employment) by reason of the performance of military service to the employment and reemployment rights of this Act if such person gives the employer proper notification of such service. Entitles a person to reemployment in either the same position or one as closely related as possible. Continues (as if no service has occurred) the seniority and other rights and benefits that would have normally accrued to such person without such service. Directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to assist any person entitled to employment and reemployment rights and benefits under this Act in the pursuit of employment, whether in the Federal Government or otherwise. Allows Federal employees who are separated from Federal service in order to perform military service and who subsequently return to the same or a similar position to participate in the Thrift Savings Plan, as long as appropriate employee contributions are made during their absence.
