The Adecco Group Named a 2021 Top 10 Military Spouse Friendly® Employer and Gold Status Military Friendly® Employer

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Adecco Group, the world's leading provider of workforces solutions, today announced that it has earned a top 10 spot as a 2021 Military Spouse Friendly® Employer, ranking sixth overall. The company was also recognized with a 2021 Military Friendly® Employer Gold Award. Since 2003, the Military Friendly® lists have come to set the standard for organizations to provide the best opportunities for veterans and military spouses.

Institutions earning these designations were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Methodology, criteria and weightings were determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining an organization's survey score with an assessment of the organization's ability to meet thresholds for Applicant, New Hire Retention, Employee Turnover and Promotion & Advancement of veterans and military employees.

"At the Adecco Group, hiring exceptional people is at the heart of what we do. The military community is full of highly-skilled, highly-motivated workers with an inherent ability to adapt to change," said Joyce Russell, president of the Adecco Group U.S. Foundation. "We take great pride in every military veteran and spouse we hire and in our recognition as a longstanding Military Friendly® employer."

The Adecco Group's Military Alliance Program is a partnership between military affiliated groups and military installations in the U.S. serving veterans, wounded warriors, National Guard and Reserve members and military spouses. Through the program, the Adecco Group supports military families through employment opportunities and career development resources.

"Companies that have earned this designation have invested in substantive programs to retain and advance veterans and spouses within their organizations," said Josh Rosen, director of Military Friendly®. "To them, hiring veterans and spouses isn't just about the right thing to do. It's good for business."

The Adecco Group will be showcased along with other 2021 Military Friendly® Employers in the December issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine and on MilitaryFriendly.com.
