Championed by the co-chairs of DirectEmployers’ VetConnect Employee Resource Group (ERG), this initiative featured five virtual training modules to understand the military culture better, the challenges faced during the transition, and how best to connect with military and veteran employees. Recognizing that the experiences of military personnel are much different from those of nonmilitary personnel, these programs structure their content to address the unique needs and strengths of servicemembers, veterans, and their families while ensuring the provision of evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
As a leading OFCCP compliance solution provider, DirectEmployers is no stranger to veteran employment initiatives. Supporting employers in complying with the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), veteran recruitment, hiring, and retention are the foundation of its solutions, powered by automated job listing, outreach efforts, and targeted recruitment activities.
