Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), a leading health and well-being
company, launches a refreshed military-connected hiring strategy
and earns recognition by U.S. Veterans Magazine as a Top
Veteran-Friendly Employer and Top Veteran-Friendly Supplier
Diversity Program.
Humana administers health benefits for nearly 6 million
active-duty military and retirees nationwide and understands the
importance of a workforce that reflects the diversity of the
military and veteran communities it serves. Humana introduced its
initial veteran and military-connected hiring strategy in 2011 and,
to date, has hired approximately 6,000 veterans and military
spouses. To keep pace with the current needs of veterans and
military families in today’s workforce, Humana refreshes its
strategy to ensure the company remains a top employer for veterans
and military spouses.
“We are honored to be recognized by U.S. Veterans Magazine for
our ongoing initiatives to ensure veterans and military spouses
feel valued and have the opportunity to thrive at Humana,” says
Carolyn Tandy, SVP and Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Officer. She adds, “Our enhanced military-connected hiring strategy
will equip Humana to meet the needs of veterans and military
families now and in the future.”
Highlights from Humana’s New Military-Connected Hiring
Strategy:
- Hiring Goals: A pledge to hire at least 2,000
military-connected employees, including veterans and spouses, by
2032, with at least one hundred of those being in key states like
Kentucky, Texas, and Florida.
- Retention Goals: A goal retention rate for
military-connected employees of 75% in the first year of
employment, increasing to 90% for years 2 – 5 of employment.
- 4 +1 Plan: Humana has adopted the Hiring Our Heroes and
Blue Star Families 4 + 1 plan. This comprehensive plan includes
facilitating job transferability, offering remote opportunities,
providing flexible work hours, granting paid or permissive
permanent change of station leave, and a military spouse fellowship
program.
The refreshed military-connected hiring strategy coincides with
a significant recognition from U.S. Veterans Magazine as a Top
Veteran-Friendly Supplier Diversity Program and Top
Veteran-Friendly Employer. The magazine evaluates company
submissions and independently collects data to identify companies
that lead in creating inclusive work environments that honor the
veterans’ skills and experiences and support veterans transitioning
into civilian careers.
“Our new strategy and recognition from U.S. Veterans Magazine
demonstrate Humana’s unwavering commitment to caring for the health
and well-being of veterans, military members, and their families,”
says Tandy.
