November 11, 2020 By Sage Advisory
Austin, Texas (November 11, 2020) – U.S. Secretary of Labor Eugene Scalia recognized Sage Advisory Services as one of the 675 recipients of the 2020 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during an award ceremony at the U.S. Department of Labor. Sage Advisory earned the Platinum 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 job creators who successfully recruit, hire, and retain veterans.
“We deeply appreciate and honor our veterans for their service commitment to our country and our company,” said Bob Smith, President and CIO of Sage Advisory. “Their workplace dedication to purpose, mission and teamwork has greatly benefited our organization and community. We need the help and support of our veterans and they need us. That is why we continue to prioritize their hiring and professional development at our company.”
Sage Advisory joins 674 other companies from 49 states plus the District of Columbia who have shown a commitment to hiring veterans, but also ensure that they have a long-term career and growth plan that uses the diverse skills they acquired through their military service.
The HIRE Vets Medallion Award is based on a number of criteria, ranging from veteran hiring and retention to providing veteran-specific resources, leadership programming, dedicated human resources, and compensation and tuition assistance programs – with requirements varying for large, medium, and small employers.
