Happy Veteran’s Day and Thank You to all the Veterans out there and their families.
Today in the United States we are celebrating Veteran’s Day. I am doing something a little different today to say Thank You and help our Veterans find work. This also applies to other countries as most have Veteran’s and the same things apply.
Today, take a moment to Thank a Veteran.
I also want to give Veterans my recommendation for your next hire.
- Veterans are a great resource for contractors
- They already have some great training
- They are used to following processes and procedures
- The work great in teams
- They are exposed to technology
- Understand safety
- Great with OTJ training
- Consider a Veteran to fill your next position
- There are many out there looking for work
- Post your jobs on sites where Veterans can find them
- Allow them to continue participation in the Reserves
- Help with the transition
You will be rewarded for your efforts. I have worked with many Veterans in the past and would recommend them to anyone looking for great employees that fir well with construction.
