Become a Patriot Employer!

The Patriot Employer Program provides employers with the tools and knowledge to hire and retain veterans. Just as important, it also demonstrates the benefits of utilizing the men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

The benefit of hiring veterans goes far beyond tax breaks and incentives. Anyone who has served in the military is familiar with discipline and teamwork. They have respect for policies and procedures and they know the importance of overcoming adversity to complete the mission.

Most former military members are comfortable with technology and have been in positions where they have had to learn new skills or adapt quickly.  They also possess a set of values that includes integrity, honesty, and trustworthiness. These are all the attributes of an employee that would make any business or company proud. Veterans know what it means to put in a “good, honest day of work." 

The Patriot Employer Program provides a “tool kit in hiring veterans” to human resources professionals who complete the Patriot Employer online course. Upon completion, the business is eligible to receive a certificate, signed by the Governor and presented in a special ceremony, unless a ceremony is not desired. The certificate and Patriot Employer decal are meant to be proudly displayed.
