Global all-domain defense provider HII (NYSE: HII) was recently
awarded the 2023 Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing
(HIRE) Vets Medallion Award. The HIRE Vets Medallion Award from the
U.S. Department of Labor is the only federal-level veterans’
employment award that recognizes a company or organization’s
exemplary commitment to veteran hiring, retention and professional
development.
“I’m proud of our initiatives to recruit, hire and
retain veterans at HII,” said Chris Kastner, president and CEO of
HII. “We have reminders of our mission all around us, and none are
more important than the active duty men and women who serve our
nation. I believe having former military members as part of our
workforce is vital to the company. These veterans that continue to
serve through their work at HII contribute greatly to the values
that are the cornerstone of HII’s culture, which drives our future
growth and success.”
HII is the largest employer in Mississippi and the
largest industrial employer in Virginia. At 44,000 strong, HII’s
workforce unites diverse backgrounds and skill sets, from pipe
fitters to nuclear physicists to software coders. Over 17% of HII’s
workforce are veterans. Additionally, HII has dedicated
veteran and military spouse recruiters and active veteran employee
resource groups at all three divisions, and offers leadership
development and integration assistance programs. These initiatives
at HII enhance the leadership skills of veteran employees during
their employment and assist new veteran employees with
opportunities for personal and professional development, mentoring
and learning the culture.
Veterans have options at HII after their time in
service. HII is actively recruiting from both local as well as
outside of the immediate Virginia and Mississippi region. HII is
seeking dynamic, energetic retired or separated service members to
support the three divisions within HII.
