RESTON, Va., Nov. 28, 2022 -- U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh recognized Assured Consulting Solutions, LLC (“ACS”) as one of the 835 recipients of the 2022 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during a virtual award ceremony presented by U.S. Department of Labor. ACS earned the platinum award 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.
“Hundreds of thousands of our military members continue their transition to civilian life each year. We are proud that ACS plays a key role in making these transitions successful, evident by the nearly half of our workforce who have a military background. The HIRE Vets Medallion award underscores our commitment to our veterans and their professional development.”
ACS is proud to join 834 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 2022 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.
