TIAG Receives 2021 Hire Vets Medallion Award from the U.S. Department of Labor

U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh recognized TIAG as one of the 849 recipients of the 2021 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during a virtual award ceremony presented by the U.S. Department of Labor. 

TIAG earned the gold 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. 

“We are passionate about hiring transitioning military members, veterans, reservists,” shares Neil Lampton, President and COO of TIAG, “These are individuals with excellent leadership skills, who take initiative, are self-disciplined, and believe in the power of teamwork and community.”

TIAG 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.
