The Employer Partnership Office believes that patriotic Employers who share their employees with the Armed Forces should benefit because of this business decision. The employment of service members is a good return on investment. The Armed Forces can recruit individuals for military service and an employee for a civilian company. Service Members are pre-screened for education, aptitude, health and background before they can join us. Businesses may save recruiting and screening costs by hiring service members.
Additionally, service members possess the professional, technical and specialized skills that are in high demand by Employers today. Service members have unique skills and leadership abilities they can use in the workplace starting on day one. Their values-based character means they are reliable and hard working. The Armed Forces is committed to the professional development of its people, and service members are continually receiving advanced training in their military career.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, it costs one-third of a new hire's annual salary to replace them due to costs related to recruitment, selection and training. Under the Employer Partnership Office, these costs may be reduced by hiring already trained and skilled service members.
