PKL is a 2025 VETS Index Recognized Employer

April 11, 2025

PKL has received the Recognized Employer Award in the 2025 VETS Indexes Employer Awards program, through our organization’s strong commitment to recruiting, hiring, retaining, developing, and supporting veterans and the military-connected community.

The full list of all awardees is available here: https://vetsindexes.com/award-results-2025

In sharing our award, George Altman, President of VETS Indexes, said, “Even as more organizations than ever before are recognizing the uniquely valuable skills that veterans bring as employees, the efforts of PKL Services, Inc. to recruit, retain, develop, and support those who served, as well as their families, stand out from the pack. Congratulations to PKL Services, Inc. for its remarkable progress creating a workplace that welcomes veterans and empowers them to advance their careers.”

This award is based on lengthy survey input related to all aspects of organizational alignment, support, and development for veterans in the workplace and analyzed for commitment and performance based on hiring data, retention statistics, management, veteran support, and more.

This year, a record total of 349 organizations completed and submitted surveys for the VETS Indexes Employer Awards, more than ever before! Of those participants, VETS Indexes recognized 294 organizations across the following award levels: 5 Star Employer, 4 Star Employer, 3 Star Employer, and Recognized Employer. Not every responding organization made the cut – only those that demonstrated a strong commitment to veterans, members of the National Guard and Reserves, and military spouses. Participating organizations included companies large and small, government agencies and departments, nonprofit groups, colleges, and universities.

VETS Indexes is a leading voice on veteran employment issues, overseeing the VETS Indexes Employer Awards, hosting the Employing U.S. Vets Conference, unearthing unique and unprecedented data on veteran employment through the Veteran Employment Benchmarking Service, and developing custom indexes, linked to financial products, that track the performance of the publicly traded companies that have established themselves as the best employers for veterans.

We are honored to receive this recognition again this year.
