U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh recognized Flux Resources, LLC as one of the 849 recipients of the 2021 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during a virtual award ceremony presented by U.S. Department of Labor.
Flux earned the gold award for medium employer after applying earlier this year. The Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans Act (HIRE Vets Act) Medallion Program is the only federal award program that recognizes employers who successfully recruit, hire, and retain veterans.
“Flux is honored to be selected for this award as it demonstrates our commitment to helping veterans find careers and job opportunities,” said Brad Scardino, Program Manager of Flux. “When recruiting veterans, we know we’re getting someone who is reliable, trainable and has a sense of ownership over the work they produce. Flux believes this so much we’ve created a program for veteran engagement so we can ensure we are continuously attracting veteran talent along with the skills and experiences they bring.”
Flux joins 848 other companies from 49 states, plus the District of Columbia, who have shown a commitment to hiring veterans, but also ensuring that they have a long-term career and growth plan that uses the diverse skills they acquired through their military service. Recipients of the 2021 HIRE Vets Medallion Award meet rigorous employment and veteran integration assistance criteria, including veteran hiring and retention percentages; availability of veteran-specific resources; leadership programming for veterans; dedicated human resource efforts; pay compensation and tuition assistance programs for veterans. More than 1,400 employers have earned a HIRE Vets Medallion Award since 2018.
The HIRE Vets Medallion Award is earned by businesses that demonstrate unparalleled commitment to attracting, hiring and retaining veterans.
