The HIRE Vets Medallion Program recognizes employers who recruit, retain, and employ veterans, and who offer charitable services in support of the veteran community. The Department of Labor established the program under the Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans Act, or HIRE Vets Act.
“Veterans give an incredible gift to this country, and that giving doesn’t stop when they leave the military. From technical know-how to leadership skills honed on the battlefield, veterans have a wide range of abilities that make them tremendous assets for the American economy and for any employer,” said former U.S. Secretary of Labor Alexander Acosta. “The Department of Labor looks forward to shining the spotlight on employers who make hiring veterans a priority and encouraging other employers to hire our nation’s heroes.”
