Jobs\u00ae and Military Spouse Magazine\u00ae. Military Friendly\u00ae rankings distinguish high pedigree organizations with robust, comprehensive veteran and military spouse employment, transition, retention and career development programs that ultimately improve the lives of veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur entire company is committed to supporting military veterans, reservists, guard members and their families from around the world \u2013 regardless of their nation of service \u2013 with responsive programs, policies and industry-leading benefits,\u201d said Chuck Harrington, Parsons chief executive officer. \u201cWe\u2019re extremely proud of the contributions our servicemembers make at Parsons every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Approximately 14 percent of Parsons\u2019 workforce are veterans. The company offers a variety of programs to support veterans, including unlimited differential bridging of compensation and benefits for activated Reserve and Guard Members; company-provided Transition Time Off following activation; a veteran transition and career mentoring program; and Department of Defense internships and fellowships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Institutions earning the Military Friendly\u00ae Employer designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Hundreds of companies participated in the Military Friendly\u00ae Employers portion of the 2021 Military Friendly\u00ae Companies survey. Methodology, criteria, and weightings were determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly\u00ae Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining an organization\u2019s survey score with an assessment of the organization\u2019s ability to meet thresholds for Applicant, New Hire Retention, Employee Turnover, and Promotion &amp; advancement of veterans and military employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCompanies that have earned this designation have invested in substantive programs to recruit, retain and advance veterans within their organizations,\u201d said Josh Rosen, Director of Military Friendly\u00ae. \u201cTo them, hiring veterans isn\u2019t just the right thing to do. It\u2019s good for business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 2001, VIQTORY is a service disabled, veteran owned small business (SDVOSB) that connects the military community to civilian employment, educational and entrepreneurial opportunities through its owned assets such as Military Spouse Magazine\u00ae, G.I. Jobs\u00ae and Military Friendly\u00ae brands.
