American Water earns 2024 Military Friendly Gold Employer designation

7th consecutive year American Water has been included on Military Friendly Employer rankings

Camden-based American Water recently said it earned the 2024 Military Friendly Gold Employer designation for its industry-leading efforts on hiring and supporting our nation’s military veterans.

Institutions earning the Military Friendly Employer designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Methodology, criteria and weightings were determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly Advisory Council of independent leaders in the military recruitment community.

“Organizations earning the Military Friendly Employers designation have wholeheartedly invested in comprehensive and impactful initiatives that bring about positive, life-changing results for our valued service members, dedicated military spouses and esteemed veterans within their ranks,” Kayla Lopez, senior director of military partnerships at Military Friendly, said. “We salute these exemplary employers who raise the bar and understand that hiring military personnel is not merely an act of goodwill, but a testament to a standard that truly embodies sound business wisdom. Their steadfast commitment to integrating military personnel into their workforce not only reflects their compassion but also underscores their business acumen.”

American Water will be featured as one of the 2024 Military Friendly Employers in the Winter issue of G.I. Jobs magazine and on MilitaryFriendly.com.

Earlier this year, American Water was also honored as a VETS Indexes 3 Star Employer. The VETS Indexes Employer Awards are reserved for organizations that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to veterans and the military community.
