Greensboro, NC — HAECO Americas announced today that it has earned the 2018 Military Friendly Employer designation by Victory Media. First published in 2003, the “Military Friendly Employers” is the most comprehensive, powerful resource for veterans. Each year, the list of Military Friendly Employers is provided to service members and their families, helping them discover the best post-military career opportunities available.
Companies and organizations earning the Military Friendly Employer designation were evaluated using three data sources in the scoring methodology: publicly available data from federal agencies; personal opinion data from veteran employees; and proprietary Military Friendly survey data from participating organizations.
HAECO Americas is committed to hiring military talent, knowing first-hand that recruiting veterans and military spouses is not only the right thing to do, but also the right thing for its business.
Andy Halsey, HAECO Americas Chief Human Resources Officer, said: "As a socially responsible company, we value the leadership, dedication and passion that members of the armed forces bring to the team. We are extremely honored to receive this award, especially considering that more than 40% of our workforce are active and retired military members."
“Companies that have earned this designation have exceptionally strong hiring programs and meaningful jobs for transitioning service members, veterans and spouses,” said Daniel Nichols, Chief Product Officer at Victory Media. “Our Military Friendly Employers have moved beyond answering ‘why hire military?’ They are truly aligning their jobs and recruiting efforts with Military Friendly Schools to translate military competencies into civilian careers.”
HAECO Americas will be showcased along with other 2018 Military Friendly Employers in the December issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine, the January 2018 issue of Military Spouse Magazine, and on MilitaryFriendly.com
About Military Friendly® Employers:
The Military Friendly Employers list is created each year based on extensive research using public data sources for thousands of federal contractors nationwide, input of military employees, and responses to the proprietary, data-driven Military Friendly Employers survey from participating companies. The survey questions, methodology, criteria and weightings were developed with the assistance of an independent research firm and an advisory council of educators and employers. Data calculations and tabulations were independently evaluated for completeness and accuracy by EY. The survey is administered for free and is open to companies that have hired veterans in the past 12 months. Criteria for consideration can be found at https://militaryfriendly.com
