Renaissance Global Services, LLC (RGS) earned the 2024 HIRE Vets Medallion Award presented by the U.S. Department of Labor for the fifth consecutive year, culminating in the Platinum Award three years in a row. The Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans Act (HIRE Vets Act) Medallion Program is the only federal award program that recognizes employers who successfully recruit, hire, and retain veterans.
RGS President & CEO, Tony Martinez said “Hiring and retaining veterans is baked into our culture at RGS. It is who we are and what we do and our clients appreciate the value that Veterans bring to the table.”
RGS joins the other companies from 49 states, plus the District of Columbia, who have shown a commitment to hiring veterans and providing long-term career and growth opportunities that use the diverse skills they acquired through their military service. Acting Secretary of Labor Julie Su and Assistant Secretary for Veterans’ Employment and Training James D. Rodriguez announced these 838 U.S. employers during an online ceremony.
“The U.S. Department of Labor congratulates the newest recipients of the HIRE Vets Medallion Award and thanks them for their commitment to our nation’s veterans,” said Acting Secretary Julie Su. “In 2024, we recognize 838 companies that understand that military veterans possess unique skills that strengthen their organizations and our nation’s economy.”
Presented annually, the HIRE Vets Medallion Program is the only federal-level program recognizing veteran employment and employers that demonstrate unparalleled commitment to attracting, hiring and retaining veterans. Employers have hired nearly 370,000 veterans since the program’s inception, including more than 71,000 veterans hired by 2024’s medallion honorees in the past two years.
