Veterans' Employment Awards open for nominations |
Nominations are now open for the Prime Minister’s Veterans’ Employment Awards. A new national awards program established as part of the Prime Minister’s Veterans’ Employment Program to recognise employers of veterans is accepting nominations till 22 December 2017. The Veterans Employment Awards will celebrate Australian businesses that are employing former Defence personnel, as well as veterans who are making a significant contribution to their workplace. The Prime Minister’s Veterans’ Employment Program aims to raise awareness among employers about the diverse skills and experience veterans bring to the workplace.

The categories for the awards include: - Leadership in Recruitment of Veterans - Veteran Employee of the Year - Veterans’ Employer of the Year – Large Business - Veteran’ Employer of the Year – Small to Medium-Sized Business - Veterans’ Employer of the Year – Public Sector Organisation - Excellence in Supporting Veterans’ Employment - Excellence in Supporting Spouse Employment You can nominate for the Veterans’ Employment Awards until 22 December 2017. |
