SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The VETS USERRA/VP Form 1010 (VETS-1010 Form) is used to file 
complaints with the Department of Labor's Veterans' Employment and 
Training Service (VETS) under either the Uniformed Services Employment 
and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) or the laws and regulations 
related to Veterans' Preference (VP) in Federal employment. On October 
13, 1994, the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act 
(USERRA), Public Law 103-353, 108 Stat. 3150 was signed into law. 
Contained in Title 38, U.S.C. 4301-4335, USERRA is the replacement for 
the Veterans' Reemployment Rights (VRR) law. The purposes of USERRA 
laws and regulations are: To minimize disruption to the lives of 
persons who perform service in the uniformed services (including the 
National Guard and Reserves), as well as to their employers, their 
fellow employees, and their communities, by providing for prompt 
reemployment of such persons upon completion of such service; to 
encourage individuals to participate in non-career uniformed service by 
eliminating and minimizing the disadvantages to civilian careers and 
employment which can result from such service; and to prohibit 
discrimination in employment and acts of reprisal against persons 
because of their obligations in the uniformed services, prior service, 
intention to join the uniformed services, filing of a USERRA claim, 
seeking assistance concerning an alleged USERRA violation, testifying 
in a proceeding, or otherwise assisting in an investigation of a USERRA 
claim. The Veterans Employment Opportunities Act (VEOA) of 1998, Public 
Law 105-339, 12 Stat. 3182, contained in Title 5 U.S.C. 3330a-3330c, 
authorizes the Secretary of Labor to provide assistance to preference 
eligible individuals who believe their rights under the veterans' 
preference laws have been violated, and to investigate claims filed by 
those individuals. The purposes of veterans' preference laws include: 
To provide preference for certain veterans over others in Federal 
hiring from competitive lists of applicants; to allow access and open 
up Federal job opportunities to veterans that might otherwise be closed 
to the public; and to provide preference eligible veterans with 
preference over others in retention during reductions in force in 
Federal agencies. VETS has an electronic complaint form, the VETS
