Interactive Government Holdings (IGH) takes a keen interest in hiring America’s military veterans. Veterans bring professionalism, unique experiences and mission dedication to every task before them. In Ohio, the IGH team is led by Program Manager Bradley Moeller, a veteran of the Ohio Army National Guard. Bradley and his team assist the National Guard Employment Enhancement Program.
Bradley and his team work specifically with military service members so they can be successful in their military and civilian careers. Recently, Bradley supported the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Statement of Support Ceremony in Columbus with event planning, sending invitations to participate to Ohio companies and day-of operations.
The Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Statement of Support Ceremony on July 9 sought to highlight this national Department of Defense program, recognize the public-private partnerships that make it a reality and encourage more employers to support and hire military members, veterans and family members.
The ceremony, held outside the National Veterans Memorial and Museum included many faces familiar to Ohioans. Among the speakers were Ohio Lt. Governor Jon Husted, CEO of the National Veterans Memorial and Museum Lt. General Michael Ferriter (Ret.), Director of the Ohio Department of Veteran Services Maj. General Deborah Ashenhurst (Ret.), Ohio Chamber of Commerce President and former U.S. Rep. Brigadier General Steve Stivers, and Deputy Assistant Adjutant General Brigadier General Gary McCue.
As he signed a Statement of Support, Ohio Lt. Gov. Husted said, “Ohio businesses have a proud tradition of hiring guard and reserve members and supporting them during their service and deployments. The qualities they possess such as discipline, teamwork and critical thinking make them excellent employees, and Ohio is proud to sign this Statement of Support.”
After the excitement from the ceremony fades, the IGH team will continue working with Ohio employers to make them aware of the ESGR and Statement of Support Program.
Employers signing a statement of support pledge that they will:
* Fully recognize, honor, and comply with the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act.
* Provide managers and supervisors with the tools they need to effectively manage employees who serve in the Guard and Reserve.
* Appreciate the values, leadership, and unique skills Service members bring to the workforce and will encourage opportunities to hire Guardsmen, Reservists, and Veterans.
* Continually recognize and support the country’s Service members and their families, in peace, in crises, and in war.
Interactive Government Holdings is committed to hiring veterans for all positions in order to honor the members who have sacrificed so much. Interactive Government Holdings is honored to work with the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) program and support military service members in their personal and military careers.
