Would USERRA require that?
No and no.
Green slips aren't overtime. They are premium pay to incentivize getting the company out of a pickle. I just want military members to have access to those opportunities like non military members. I'd even accept going to the back of the line behind those who are already scheduled to exceed the GS trigger without mil leave consideration.
