PRIDE Industries, the nation’s leading employer of people with
disabilities, today held a signing ceremony marking a new
partnership with the U.S. Army through the Partnership for Your
Success (PaYS) Program. This innovative program provides America's
soldiers with valuable employment opportunities as they transition
from military service to civilian life.
The signing ceremony was held on National Hire a Veteran Day in
order to highlight the company’s dedication to helping military
veterans of all abilities find sustainable employment. PRIDE
Industries offers employment services to veterans from all branches
of the military.
“We would like to extend a heartfelt welcome to PRIDE Industries
as a new PaYS partner,” said Antonio Johnson Jr., Program Manager
at PaYS.“ The U.S. Army is a reliable recruitment source for
businesses with an endless pool of qualified talent, and we’re
pleased that PRIDE Industries is committed to helping soldiers find
employment after military service.”
PaYS Program partner companies offer guaranteed job interviews
to soldiers leaving Army service. To date, over 1,292 employers
have partnered with the PaYS Program, demonstrating their
commitment to supporting soldiers in their transition to civilian
employment. PRIDE Industries, with its extensive experience in
providing employment opportunities and support services to military
veterans, is proud to join this esteemed group of
organizations.
"We recognize the immense value that veterans bring to our
workforce," said Jeff Dern, President and CEO at PRIDE Industries.
"Their experience serving our country instills in them a strong
work ethic, adaptability, and leadership skills that are highly
sought after in the civilian job market. We are honored to partner
with the U.S. Army through the PaYS Program and look forward to
providing meaningful employment opportunities to even more
veterans."
In addition to directly employing hundreds of military veterans,
PRIDE Industries offers a range of resources for veterans seeking
civilian employment, including job coaching, vocational
instruction, and employment placement assistance. The company's
unique I AM ABLE Employment Helpline and Military Skills Translator
further enhance veterans' access to meaningful employment
opportunities.
