German term or phrase: Soldmeldekarte
Der Arbeitgeber zahlt bei obligatorischen Dienstleistungen bis max. 30 Diensttage je Kalenderjahr 100 % des Salärs. Die Lohnentgeltzahlung über 30 Diensttage werden individuell nach Absprache mit dem CEO geregelt.

Die Soldmeldekarte muss unaufgefordert und sofort nach dem Militärdienst vollständig ausgefüllt dem HRM abgegeben werden.

English translation:Military report form
Explanation:
In Switzerland at least the Soldmeldekarte seems to be the same as the EO-Karte Erwerbsersatzordnungskarte. The soldier gets paid by his/her employer for days spent in military service.
See references below. Don't think there is an exact equivalent in English as not many English-speaking countries have this obligatory military service.

I don't much like "military report form", what about "salary compensation form"?

Explanation:
This is obviously a Swiss text, 'cos that's where every single web mention comes from. This is also referred to as an "EO-Karte" on many of the sites; see below - hence my suggestion.

I think it would clearly be wrong to refer to it as a "Military" form of any sort; as is made clear in the bottom site, it is for the Swiss equivalent of the compulsory German military OR civilian service. The only way to make this clear in the text would be to add an appropriate note.
