Employers That Hire Veterans Invited to Apply for Award
February 2, 2022
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is accepting applications for the 2022 HIRE Vets Medallion Award until April 30, 2022. The DOL presents the award annually to employers that meet standards for excellence in the recruitment, hiring, and retention of America’s military veterans.
The award recognizes small businesses, nonprofit organizations, and large companies for leadership in promoting veterans’ employment. Employers that receive the award in 2022 will join more than 1,400 employers that the department has recognized for their support of America’s veterans.
“The HIRE Vets Medallion Award is a meaningful and important recognition, said U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh. Veterans and their families benefit from careers with real growth potential and employers gain dedicated, qualified employees who can make a significant contribution to the bottom line.”
To complete the application process, employers must verify that their organization meets award requirements, pay the application fee, and comply with the rules promulgated by the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act and the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Act.
