National Hire A Veteran Day
Keep in mind that July 25th is National Hire a Veteran Day, and if your organization hires truck drivers….
According to data published by the Department of Labor, approximately 70,000 veterans who transitioned out of the military in the last five years have certified trucking experience. The Department of Labor’s Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) actively collaborates with Veterans Service Organizations, Military Service Organizations, unions, industry trucking associations, training providers, and private partners to help transitioning service members and veterans secure quality truck driving jobs.
