##### 17 Rights of reinstated employees
Where any person has been reinstated in employment in accordance with this Division or in accordance with the National Security (Reinstatement in Civil Employment) Regulations then, for the purposes of determining the rights of that person, as against the employer in whose employment he has been reinstated, in respect of:
(a) annual leave for recreation;
(b) leave on the ground of illness;
(c) long service leave or pay in lieu thereof (including pay to dependants on the death of the person); and
(d) superannuation or pension (whether for himself or his dependants);
the continuity of the employment of that person by the employer shall be deemed not to have been broken by his absence from employment during any period between the date upon which that person left the employment to commence war service and the date upon which he was reinstated in employment, but that period shall not, by reason only of this section, be reckoned as part of the period of employment.
