Although it’s promising to see the overall national unemployment rate has fallen from 5.8% to 5.6%, it’s simply unacceptable for our Veteran unemployment rates to have increased from 4.5% to 4.7%.

As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, VMSI understands the struggles of our Veterans returning to civilian life, returning to their families and returning to the workforce. We also understand and have benefited from the value these Veterans bring to our company and our customers. Veterans possess qualities key to any organizations success: Hard Work – Dedication – Commitment & Loyalty.

With nearly 50% of our entire employee population being Veterans, VMSI is clearly committed and vested in our returning Veterans and calls upon our industry partners, U.S. businesses, both small and large throughout the United States to take note of the continually increasing Veteran unemployment rates and to join VMSI in making a difference.

“IT’S TIME TO HIRE A VETERAN!”
