Title 38 U.S.C. Section 4322 of USERRA
authorizes the Secretary of Labor (through the Veterans' Employment
and Training Service) to investigate claims by individuals who
believe their USERRA rights have been violated. The information is
used to determine eligibility of veterans complaints to
reemployment rights they are seeking as well as to state alleged
violations by employers of the pertinent statutes and request
assistance in obtaining appropriate reemployment benefits. The
Veterans Employment Opportunities Act (VEOA) of 1998, P.L. 105-339,
112 Stat. 3182, contained in Title 5 U.S.C. § 3330a-3330(b),
provides assistance to preference eligible individuals who believe
their rights under the veterans' preference laws and the Veterans
Benefit Improvement Act of 2008 (Public Law No: 110-389) have been
violated. Section 3 of the VEOA provides the Secretary of Labor
similar authority to investigate complaints brought by preference
eligibles. The collection instrument completed by claimants
contains the information required and needed for the Department to
determine initial eligibility of the claimant.
