Hyundai Motor America has been
recognized by Victory Media, Inc., a veteran-owned business, as a 2015 Military
Friendly Employer for its long-term commitment to hiring and recruiting
former military members. Hyundai
also has policies for Guard and Reserve members called to active duty, where
upon completion of service, members will be reinstated to either their former
or another position within the company.
Hyundai currently employs
about 1,000 veterans in the United States, across its corporate headquarters,
dealerships and manufacturing plant in Alabama.
Utilizing Hyundai's
proprietary website HyundaiCareers.com, dealers hired more than 230 veterans
since January 2013.
"Hyundai has the greatest
respect for military veterans and appreciates their sacrifices for our
country," said Dave Zuchowski, president and CEO, Hyundai Motor America. "Hyundai is committed to work
one-on-one with service members to assist them with the transition into the
civilian workplace, and we will continue to invite veterans to share and
participate in Hyundai's
vision and growth."
There
are approximately 5,000 companies eligible for the 2015 Military
Friendly Employers List, but only 3 percent earn the honor. The rankings are based on a survey of more
than 100 questions that assess a company's recruiting efforts, including
policies, number of years on the list, Guard and Reserve member policies,
retention, and internal programs and
community outreach. The survey results were scored independently by Ernst &
Young, LLP. Victory Media, Inc.
publishes its annual survey-driven lists in G.I. Jobs, Military Spouse and
Vetrepreneur magazines.
