Sodexo Recognized as Top Military Friendly Employer by G.I. Jobs

Sodexo was recently named one of the nation’s top 100 Military Friendly Employers for its enterprise-wide focus on hiring, supporting and retaining military veterans and reservists, according to G.I. Jobs, the premier publication for post-military employment. This is the second consecutive year Sodexo has been named to the list, which is the primary benchmark of corporate recruiting programs aimed at veterans, including the 400,000 new civilian workers annually who retire or separate from the military.

“Sodexo focuses on hiring, supporting and retaining military veterans and reservists because their leadership skills, initiative and integrity reflect our core values,” said George Chavel, Chief Executive Officer, Sodexo, Inc. “With more than 3,000 employees who are veterans, Guard members and reservists, Sodexo has learned from experience how to ease veterans’ transition back to working life.”
