Sin embargo, las disputas salariales pueden surgir tambi\u00e9n en otros contextos, como cuando los empleadores no compensan a los trabajadores que est\u00e1n de baja.<\/p>\n<p>Hay muchas situaciones en las que los empleadores deben pagar a los empleados incluso cuando estos no est\u00e1n trabajando. La licencia militar de corta duraci\u00f3n puede ser uno de esos casos.<\/p>\n<h2>Ley sobre el pago de la licencia militar<\/h2>\n<p>Algunos empleados que toman licencia para servir en el ej\u00e9rcito pueden seguir recibiendo su salario habitual.<\/p>\n<p>Legales como la Ley de Derechos de Reempleo y de los Empleados de los Servicios Uniformados (USERRA) protegen los salarios de los miembros de los servicios militares. Por ejemplo, la USERRA exige que las empresas p\u00fablicas paguen a los trabajadores por el tiempo de licencia militar de corta duraci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>USERRA no cubre a las empresas privadas, que pueden decidir si compensan a los miembros del ej\u00e9rcito en licencia. Sin embargo, algunos casos recientes han determinado que USERRA requiere que un empleador privado otorgue licencia militar pagada en la misma medida en que otorga licencia pagada para otras ausencias. Si un empleador privado decide adoptar una pol\u00edtica que otorgue licencia completa o parcial, debe aplicarla de manera uniforme y sin discriminaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<h2>Cuando los empleadores no cumplen con sus obligaciones<\/h2>\n<p>El incumplimiento de las leyes federales y estatales relativas a la licencia pagada puede dar lugar a acciones legales y da\u00f1os financieros para los empleados perjudicados.<\/p>\n<p>Por ejemplo, un <a role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/legal\/amazon-faces-class-action-not-paying-workers-military-leave-2021-05-21\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Se propone una demanda colectiva a nivel nacional<\/a> Se ha presentado en Nueva York una demanda contra Amazon, acusando a la compa\u00f1\u00eda de no pagar a los empleados que han tomado un permiso militar de corta duraci\u00f3n desde 2004.<\/p>\n<p>Los trabajadores que no recibieron sueldo podr\u00edan tener derecho a recibir una indemnizaci\u00f3n por los salarios perdidos y no pagados, los beneficios perdidos y los da\u00f1os. En un caso similar, Walmart acord\u00f3 pagar a los trabajadores 14 millones de d\u00f3lares y actualiz\u00f3 su pol\u00edtica para compensar plenamente a los trabajadores por hasta 30 d\u00edas de licencia militar al a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n<h2>Protegiendo tus derechos y tus salarios<\/h2>\n<p>Los empleados no siempre saben que pueden recibir m\u00e1s dinero de lo que ven en sus n\u00f3minas. Algunos empleados reciben informaci\u00f3n err\u00f3nea de sus supervisores; otros no saben que existen protecciones para situaciones espec\u00edficas, como el permiso militar, el servicio en el jurado o el duelo.<\/p>\n<p>Debido a esto, demasiados trabajadores no reciben la compensaci\u00f3n que se les debe. <a role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/katzmelinger.com\/es\/areas-de-practica\/derecho-laboral\/reclamaciones-de-salarios-y-horas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil-url-old=\"aHR0cHM6Ly9rYXR6bWVsaW5nZXIuY29tL3ByYWN0aWNlLWFyZWFzL2VtcGxveW1lbnQtbGF3L3dhZ2UtaG91ci1jbGFpbXMtZW1wbG95ZWVzLw==\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">a los que tienen derecho<\/a>.
