 2        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section 5.  The Military Leave of Absence Act is  amended
 5    by changing Section 1 and by adding Section 1.1 as follows:

 6        (5 ILCS 325/1) (from Ch. 129, par. 501)
 7        Sec. 1.  Any full-time employee of the State of Illinois,
 8    a  unit of local government, or a school district, other than
 9    an independent contractor, who is a  member  of  any  reserve
10    component of the United States Armed Forces or of any reserve
11    component  of  the  Illinois  State Militia, shall be granted
12    leave from his or her public State employment for any  period
13    actively spent in such military service, including:
14        (1)  basic training;
15        (2)  special  or advanced training, whether or not within
16    the State, and whether or not voluntary; and
17        (3)  annual training.
18        During these such leaves, the  employee's  seniority  and
19    other benefits shall continue to accrue.
20        During  leaves  for  annual  training, the employee shall
21    continue to receive his or  her  regular  compensation  as  a
22    public  State  employee. During leaves for basic training and
23    up to 60 days of special or advanced training,  if  the  such
24    employee's  compensation for military activities is less than
25    his or her compensation as a public State employee, he or she
26    shall receive his or her regular  compensation  as  a  public
27    State  employee  minus  the amount of his or her base pay for
28    military activities.
