Supporting veterans and active duty employees is not just a civic duty but also an opportunity for companies to cultivate a diverse and inclusive workplace. * Recruitment and Hiring: Translate military skills to civilian applications and actively recruit veterans during job fairs or through veterans’ organizations. Remind recruiters and interview panels that potential candidates with a military background may not have continuous civilian work (resume gaps) but they were gaining valuable skills while serving our country. * Workplace Culture: Educate staff about military service and bridge the gap between civilian and veteran employees. Consider developing a component of a paid family leave program that allows employees to take paid leave immediately before, during and after their own or their partners military deployment. This allows families to prepare for rebalancing family life while their family member is on active duty. Remind employees that Employee Assustance programs are available to support employees who are active, veterans or members of military families. * Employee Resource Groups: Don’t make the mistake of solely establishing a Veterans Resource Group and calling it a day. Go beyond performative gestures for our military coworkers. Don’t forget that you likely have active duty members in your workforce and family members of veterans and military members. Look at this as an opportunity to develop a whole support system for employees with military experience and their families. Consider establishing an ERG that includes active military, veterans and allies. Remember to solicit their input on how best to recruit and retain employees with military backgrounds. * Flexible Deployment Schedules: Offer flexible work schedules or leave policies for active duty service members who may be called to serve. Extend that flexibility to partners who may have to rebalance family responsibilities in their partners absence. #VeteransSupport #DiversityandInclusion #EmployeeEngagement #EmployeeResourceGroups #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #ActiveDuty #Veterans #Military #MilitaryFamily
