Veterans are trained leaders and know how to make decisions. The Shippers Group honors our veterans and is proud that we’ve successfully completed all the requirements for the SHRM Foundation’s Veterans at Work Certificate. The Human Resources team at The Shippers Group recently completed SHRM’s course that focuses on recruitment, hiring, retention and engagement of military veterans and spouses. 

The certification is given to organizations that understand the needs of our veterans and military spouses. Certification is available to individuals and organizations that develop a progressive recruiting strategy by focusing on best practices to attract, hire and retain those who have sacrificed to help preserve our freedom and keep us safe.

Diane Villafana is TSG’s Vice President of Human Resources and Safety Compliance. When asked about the Veterans at Work Certificate Diane explained, “We are focused on expanding our internal strategy to increase recruiting of veterans and military spouses. The SHRM’s course provided valuable insight into how we can better focus on hiring and meeting the needs of those who have served.”
