Few Oregon veterans have benefited from a new law that spells out how they can ask businesses for Veterans Day off, the sponsor of the legislation says. The Salem Statesman Journal reports that many public employees get the day off, but for many veterans in the private sector, it's another working day. The Legislature passed a measure in April. It allows veterans to ask private-industry employers 21 days in advance for the day off. It gives employers a variety of options, such as giving the employee the day off either paid or unpaid, offering a different day off, or rejecting the request.
